Home Builder Donates $4,100 To The Drake House

ROSWELL, GA — A home builder has presented a check to a local organization dedicated to fighting homelessness among women and children. Taylor Morrison donated $4,198 to The Drake House, an outreach organization serving North Fulton County.

The Drake House assist homeless women and children in becoming self-sufficient through education, which leads them to become contributing members of society. The Roswell-based program offers private, fully furnished apartments, weekly life-skills classes, career counseling and after-school programming to single mothers. It serves about 40 families and 80 children each year.

“Working in the home building industry, Taylor Morrison realizes how important having a home is to any family,” said Shawn Cate, president of Taylor Morrison’s Atlanta division. “We sympathize greatly with families affected by homelessness, and we decided this holiday season to give back to a great cause that is dear to our hearts, finding homes for those who need it most.”

Taylor Morrison raised the money for The Drake House during a holiday party held in December. This donation is the second consecutive year that Taylor Morrison’s Atlanta division has donated money funds to a local charity.
