‘Build a Road’ fundraiser for
Habitat is slated for mid-April
By Cheryl Vaughn
Features Writer
Because a house is of little use without a
road to access it, Habitat for Humanity volun
teers are busy at work planning a “Build a
Road” fund-raising campaign which they
hope will resolve that very problem.
“We have 10 acres of land just off Crystal
Cove Road and have already built three
homes there,” explains Habitat for Humanity
spokesperson Becky Rainwater of Cumming.
“But in order to access the rest of the land,
we have to put in a road and the rest of the
necessary infrastructure.”
The estimated cost of the improvements is
SBO,OOO.
“Os which we have zero,” says Rainwater.

Festival will help earn the funds. The event is
being planned as an annual fundraiser.
Scheduled for April 17-18, the festivities

“There’ll be something for everyone,” says *
Rainwater, who says parties interested jib
renting space during the event should contact.-
her now at (770) 844-5554. Booth rental wiD*

optional. Admittance donations will be*

“It’s a good cause,” says Arlene Hollier, a ;
committee participant. “Habitat helps people■*
who could not otherwise afford decent
•ng”
Rainwater agrees, saying, “Volunteers helpO
get the house built and businesses donate,
materials, but the occupants pay a mortgage;'
every month just like everyone else. It’s a
hand up, not a handout.”
