In a local celebration of World Habitat Day, Atlanta Habitat for Humanity staff members are joining forces on Oct. 8 with volunteers from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the City of Atlanta’s Bureau of Housing. The group is gathering in Atlanta Habitat’s warehouse on Memorial Drive to frame walls for homes for working families.

“We applaud our governmental housing partners from HUD and the City, who will see first-hand how the grant programs they administer provide essential support for qualified homebuyer families,” says Larrie Del Martin, executive director of Atlanta Habitat. “Our construction process begins in the warehouse, where certain components of a home are assembled, and these volunteers are diving into the heart of the process.”
