The Fulton County Habitat for Humanity held a groundbreaking ceremony Friday, June 18, at the newest home site on the corner of Seventh Street and Fulton Avenue in Rochester. 

Habitat For Humanity gives a hand to working families in the community who want a part of the American dream, home ownership. Habitat homeowners must complete hours of volunteer work requirements. They also have to be able to pay a modest mortgage on their house.

The ceremony was started at noon by Fulton County Habitat for Humanity President Karmin Reeves and Pastor Terry Bradford of First Free Will Baptist Church led the prayer. 

Fulton County Habitat for Humanity Secretary Julee Anderson presented the White family with the 'Golden Hammer.'  Chris and Emiley White each put in 75 hours of volunteer work to meet the requirements before this ceremony. 

Chris, Emiley and their four children will be moving into the home once it's finished. Emiley said having the library across the street makes it a great location for her family of six.
