LITTLE HOUSE is the uplifting story of an American family forging a new life amid the mighty challenges, heartbreaks, joys and triumphs that face them in the newly-settled heartland. Above all, it is the celebration of the pioneering spirit and the core values on which this country was founded - a spirit that still resonates today. The show has participated in Habitat for Humanity builds in every city of the tour.
The star of the show, Melissa Gilbert, also participated in the build and said "We're really pleased about LITTLE HOUSE's ongoing partnership with Habitat for Humanity throughout the course of our national tour. It's the perfect marriage between a show and an organization. LITTLE HOUSE is all about the importance of home. But more than that, it's about the value of what home brings to all of us - not just as individuals but also as a community.”
Cast and staff had the opportunity to participate in drywalling the home. Cheryl Amick a Gammage staff member was grateful for the experience - she said “It was an amazing and humbling experience!” We were able to see a photo of the single mother and her three children that will be calling the house we worked on home. Th
e Habitat volunteers were incredibly patience as they taught us safety, the process, and how to hang drywall.

In the few hours we were there the team I worked with was able to drywall one and a half bedrooms and two closets. I will always remember this experience and will volunteer again for Habitat.
