San Francisco tops the chart—after Birmingham, AL, of course—in the bid to raise the most funds for the Rural Studio. The October 11 fundraiser collected $24,412 on behalf of Rural Studio! That's enough for one whole house, plus the roof, porch, windows, and paint for another! Overall efforts put San Francisco near the top of the fundraising leaderboard. Thank you, San Francisco! www.supportruralstudio.org	Students design and help build homes for Hale County residents.
