Laurelle lives in Smyrna with her two children and works as a Paraprofessional in the kindergarten class at Birney Elementary School.
Even though she spends 46% of her income on housing costs, Laurelle’s apartment makes her concerned for her family’s health - there is mold on the ceiling and stray cats nest in the HVAC vents. The electrical wiring in the apartment is substandard, so the family can’t use their air fryer in the kitchen if someone is blow drying their hair in the bathroom.
Laurelle’s children share a bedroom in the apartment, and although they have a close relationship, she aspires to provide private spaces for her independent 14-year-old daughter Eliza and her energetic 11-year-old son Alex, who is on the autism spectrum.
Laurelle heard about Habitat for Humanity’s international work where she grew up in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands, but she decided to apply when her son’s therapist told her about the homeownership program.
Now, she’s on her way to build a new home in Marietta, sponsored by the Cobb High School Coalition.

In Support of Habitat for Humanity of NW Metro Atlanta
Building Homes. Changing Lives.
Habitat for Humanity of Northwest Metro Atlanta
Since 1986, Habitat for Humanity of Northwest Metro Atlanta has helped families in Cobb, Douglas, and Paulding counties achieve the dream of homeownership. What started as a small group inspired by the global Habitat mission has grown into a movement—powered by people like you.
Through your support, we’ve built hundreds of homes and empowered families with stability, pride, and a place to call their own. Our model works: future homeowners help build their homes, purchase them with affordable mortgages, and create lasting change for generations to come.
As the need for affordable housing grows, so does our determination to meet it—with your help.
Thank you for being part of our story.
Together, we’re creating stronger communities—one home at a time.
