There are people in your own backyard without adequate housing. You don't have to travel far to make a positive difference in someone's life.....the Fuller Center for Housing seeks to improve living conditions by helping those people to help themselves.
Project McDonough started when concerned McDonough citizen, Mark Galey (President of the Atlanta Fuller Center) reached out to Shane Persaud (local Architect), and other community leaders. Since then, the program has repaired and remodeled over 25 homes for deserving families in Henry County, Georgia.
By working alongside volunteers and repaying construction costs on terms they can handle, homeowners like Mrs. Miller are able to regain a sense of basic human dignity. If you found yourself in a similar, unfortunate situation, wouldn't you want someone to offer you a helping hand?

"We are asking you for your help. Find where you fit in, come be involved but just for a day, look in the eyes of the needy, hear their plight, stand where they are, let your heart lead you." - Mark Galey (Board Member).
