On Thursday evening, July 30th, the Paulding County Habitat for Humanity invited the public to an Open House at their most recent build in Grover Hill. This house will be for a local resident whose own house is in disrepair. Habitat built him a new home on the lot adjoining his current home which was acquired from the Paulding County Land Bank. So, he will only have to move across the yard to his new home!
Local business owners, Habitat volunteers, local political candidates, and some of the volunteer labor were in attendance to celebrate the months of hard work put in to accomplish this task.
Some of the volunteers were Seniors from Vantage Career Center who are in the Carpentry program. Working on this house in Grover Hill is their Senior Project. When COVID-19 shut down the public schools, it also shut down these Seniors last project of high school.
