Best thing about Appa:

Brendan: Definitely our ability to touch the lives of so many students in a way that can’t be taught in a classroom. From the retired coal miner you meet down in Virginia to the BC senior you would’ve never crossed paths with otherwise, Appa brings together the nal and wood, and through service, builds the house that is founded on love and supported by each other
