Putnam County Habitat for Humanity awarded funding

PUTNAM COUNTY — The U.S. Department of Agriculture has awarded a Housing Preservation grant to the Putnam County Habitat for Humanity. The grant totaling $50,000 will help fund the rehabilitation of homes for low-income community members.

U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, applauded the allocation.

“Every Ohioan should have a roof over their heads and a safe place to call home,” said Brown. “This investment will help make sure that communities in Putnam County have the resources they need to improve the lives of their residents. My office and I will continue working with community partners to ensure Putnam County gets its fair share of support and investment.”
