Thompson Builds House For Local Charity

Cleveland State Women's Basketball coach Evelyn Thompson builds other things than just a basketball program in her spare time.

Thompson participated in the Habitat for Humanity of Cleveland Women's Build with six other women associated with Cleveland State on Friday morning. The organization focuses on building houses for families in need of housing assistance in the area.

"Today was a great opportunity to be a part of an incredible group of women from Cleveland State Community College who are dedicated to representing the college in a positive light and the mission of service and improvement of our community," Thompson said of the opportunity to serve. "It was such a humbling experience to be able to know that we were a part of building someone's home. We talk all the time to our students and student-athletes about the importance of service. It is even more of an impression when we can get out and show them by example."
