September 30, 2011 – Clarksville, TN – Habitat for Humanity on Thursday dedicated its 75th home in Montgomery County to El Nathon and Dyamond Williams. The house, built in partnership with First Baptist Church of Clarksville, is on Cross Lane off of Greenwood Road.
“We’re very excited to welcome the Williams family as homeowners to Clarksville as well as dedicating our 75th home,” Executive Director Jennifer Kready said in a news release.
“First Baptist Church sponsored the home build, providing financial and labor support through subcontractors and their church membership. The Williams family invested 500 hours of sweat equity to build their home, with the final hours spent working side by side with their First Baptist Church family.”
After the celebration, Habitat accepted a donation from Sango United Methodist Church from proceeds raised during its 2010 Sango Scamper Race. Preparations are being made for the 2011 race to be held on Nov. 5, during which Habitat will host a table with information about Habitat homeownership, the release said.
Habitat for Humanity will build three more homes in 2011 with sponsorships from the Habitat for Humanity ReStore, Clarksville-Montgomery County School System through its 12 Days of Christmas Fund and Don Duncan Construction.
