Habitat for Humanity of Forsyth County held a dedication ceremony for its first completed house in the new neighborhood of Stone Terrace on Saturday, August 21 for Jeanette Brwon. The neighborhood, located in the Ogburn Station community in northeast Winston-Salem, is in an underserved area targeted for revitalization by the city.
Jeanette Brown, who works at Wake Forest Baptist Hospital, will live in the home with her 8-year-old granddaughter. Ms. Brown is purchasing the Habitat home after completing 400 hours of homeownership classes and “sweat equity” by working on other Habitat families’ homes and helping build her own.
