    Swannanoa, North Carolina (WLOS) -- Helene survivors in Swannanoa are reflecting on gifts of housing. A team of volunteers for weeks have been working on building 12-feet by 16-feet cabins.

The units are insulated and come with a mini-fridge and microwave.

โ€œSo far weโ€™ve been able to put 20 people in them,โ€ said Beth Dalton, one of the volunteers spearheading the build.

Dalton said the non-profit National Mental Health Alliance is behind the effort with founder Justin Peck.
