In 1973, millionaire entrepreneur Millard Fuller and his wife Linda
left behind their materialistic lifestyle and crumbling marriage to
start over as missionaries in Zaire. On returning to Georgia in
1976, they founded Habitat for Humanity to bring new life to the
poverty-stricken. Building Habitat into the mega-giant largest
non-profit Housing ministry in the world with branches in some 110
countries, they were fired by the International Board in 2005, at
which point they immediately founded The Fuller Center for
Housing--now a rival to Habitat for Humanity. This is the story of
two "simple giants."
