Macon Area Habitat for Humanity has been awarded a grant from State Farm for $5,000 to help build future Habitat home in Macon-Bibb County. 

“We have a long history of working with Habitat for Humanity to strengthen local neighborhoods and build better communities,” said Jose Soto, State Farm Corporate Responsibility Analyst. “In addition to providing grants, our team members volunteer to revitalize neighborhoods and create affordable and sustainable housing alongside families in need of a place to call home.” 

Macon Area Habitat for Humanity will utilize the grant for home construction scheduled for Fall of 2020 in Lynmore Estates and Pleasant Hill. Volunteers from State Farm will spend a day working side by side with homeowners on the construction of their new homes. 

“We are so grateful for the support of State Farm and their team members. A safe and stable home provides security for a family and supports neighborhood stability. We look forward to having volunteers from State Farm on the job site,” said Ivey Hall, Executive Director of Macon Area Habitat for Humanity.
