Patuxent Habitat for Humanity’s newest Prince Frederick home will soon be a Thanksgiving reality for Linda and Elleasha Ward and Elleasha’ s two sons Izayah and El’jae. The dedication ceremony for the will take place at 91 Mason Road, Prince Frederick, on Tuesday, November 26 at 4:00p.m.
This is Patuxent Habitat for Humanity’s 19th home. The lot was donated to PHH by Kaine Homes . The project was funded mainly through a Community Development Block Grant awarded to the Calvert County Board of County Commissioners, as grantee on behalf of PHH, by the Maryland State Department of Housing and Community Development. PHH would like to extend our profound thanks to the BOCC and the Department of Community Resources for their assistance and support with the grant process.
Patuxent Habitat for Humanity was excited to have the opportunity to help build an affordable home for this deserving family. The Ward family has worked alongside volunteers and a few professionals to invest almost 400 hours of ‘sweat equity” in their new home.” It is sooo good to have a house that we can truly call a home, thank you to all of the helping hands” said Linda Ward
