In brief
Group awards grant

Thrivent Financial for Lutherans, a Wisconsin-based aid association for Lutherans, has awarded a $10,000 grant to the Habitat for Humanity South Kenai Peninsula project in Homer.

Richard Behnken, a financial associate with the aid group presented the check earlier this year to begin the "Building Hope ... Building Homes" project.

Thrivent and its predecessor have provided nearly $10 million to build close to 500 Habitat for Humanity homes.

"The generosity of (Thrivent) will allow concerned members of the community to help build not only a home, but a better life, for one of their neighbors," said Dan Boone, project coordinator.
