Cobb Interfaith Habitat Coalition Dedicate 24th Build

The Cobb Interfaith Habitat Coalition and future homeowner Sandra recently dedicated the Coalition’s 24th house located in Marietta.

Sandra serves as an Administrative Assistant in Development Services at the City of Marietta where she has worked since 2014. Her job helps to make the public’s experience with the City go smoothly. She lives in an apartment complex in Kennesaw and is excited about the community and financial stability that comes through homeownership.

An affordable mortgage did not seem attainable until she was selected to build with Habitat. Sandra most looks forward to cooking in a sunny kitchen, hosting holiday gatherings and hopes to get a dog. Her lot was donated by the City of Marietta as part of the Marietta Public Service program.

The coalition’s faith groups this year include 15 religious organizations and seven corporate partners. Religious partners include Smyrna First United Methodist Church, Bethany United Methodist Church, East Cobb Islamic Center, West Cobb Islamic Center, Temple Kol Emeth, Temple Sinai, AA Synagogue, St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church, Log Cabin Church, Covenant Church, Unity North of Atlanta Church, Macland Community Church, McEachern Memorial United Methodist Church, First Presbyterian Church of Marietta and Due West Methodist Church.

Faith-based sponsors include Pinkerton & Laws Construction of Atlanta, Atlanta West Carpets, Moore Colson, Fortune-Johnson, Foresite Group, Nissan, Burke-Moore and Sentinel Lake Neighborhood.
