Wednesday, May 9, 2001 Builders raise money for Habitat for Humanity Southside homebuilders gathered at the end of March at the Shamrock Community Center in Clayton County for the Wild Game Dinner, a fundraising event for Habitat for Humanity. Hosted by HomeBanc Mortgage Corporation and Heritage Bank, the event raised nearly $700 for Habitat. Items raffled off included a full set of Taylor Made golf clubs, a Benelli shotgun and a two-day fishing trip to Marathon Key, Fla. Habitat for Humanity coordinates donations and volunteer labor from church groups, individuals and corporations to help build homes for people who might never fulfill the dream of homeownership without Habitat's help. People purchasing a Habitat home are required to work on building the home alongside the volunteers and attend homebuyer education and life-skills training. For more information about volunteering for or coordinating a Habitat build on the south side of Atlanta, or to donate to the organization, contact Habitat for Humanity International at 404-371-0608.
