One of Spokane's most historic homes is on the market for the first time ever. You can own the mid-century, Modern home of Joel E. Ferris, II and his wife Mary Jean for $1.1 million.

The South Hill home is one of only two Modern architecture homes listed on the Spokane Register of Historic Places. The home was designed by Bruce Walker and completed in 1955. Walker also designed the Ridpath Motor Inn (1964), the Spokane Opera House (1974) and the Metropolitan Financial Center which is now occupied by Wells Fargo (1984). In 1960, the Ferris home won the First Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects.

Joel and Mary Jean loved the simplicity of Modern, post-war, design. They opened JOEL Inc. in Downtown Spokane in 1950 because the market for Modern furniture and home goods was lacking. The Ferris' wanted their family home to reflect this love, but the neighborhood association around Comstock Park didn't approve of the unique design.

Zambia is one of the most peaceful countries in Africa, but it is also one of the poorest and has one of the world's most devastating HIV and AIDS epidemics. In the village of Zambezi, many of the people lack food to take with their medication, but students at Gonzaga University are working to change that.

Zambezi has a population of about 7,000, similar to Quincy, WA. Now, imagine if 83 percent of Quincy lived in extreme poverty, many of them were positive for HIV/AIDS, and the life expectancy was only 49. That is the reality for the people of Zambezi.

Across the country of Zambia antiretroviral medication is readily available, but the people of Zambezi are too poor to maintain the proper nutrition for the treatments to be effective. The impact goes beyond individual health.
