Nov 12, 2008 -- Clark does Habitat build in Phoenix, talks Fresh & Easy

Clark wants to thank his Phoenix affiliate KFNN for hosting him during a daylong Habitat house build in the Grand Canyon State. The build was sponsored by a local credit union and included national sponsors such as Boeing, Intel and others.

This was the local Habitat affiliate's 707th house build. Each individual Habitat affiliate uses a different method of construction, so Clark learns something new wherever he goes.

The whole point of Habitat's mission is to build affordable housing. In Phoenix, families need to put 400 sweat equity hours into the construction process. This particular house Clark helped build for a day was going to Muslim refugees from Kosovo who had a 3-year-old child.

So here you have an evangelical Christian organization building a home for a Muslim family -- who had to flee the violence of war in their homeland. It's a heartwarming story.

In all, Clark spent 4 days in Phoenix and ate at In-N-Out Burger 3 times! He also got to go to Fresh & Easy. He previously spoke about the grocer, but he never had the chance to make a visit. The store was absolutely freezing -- employees even had to wear overcoats -- because they sell groceries with no preservatives that need to be kept at refrigerated temperatures. Clark loved the prices he saw on name brands, but he doesn't know how long Fresh & Easy will be around if they keep losing money like they have so far.

Unfortunately, Clark won't be able to answer any questions submitted via commenting. If you have a question, please try posting it to our message boards.
