ATLANTA, Dec. 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- , a premier developer and homebuilder of award-winning neighborhoods throughout Atlanta, is partnering for the second time with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital on the St. Jude Dream Home®.

The project was also awarded a Gold OBIE from the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association for the Best Community Service Project.
“We were so honored to be part of the first ever St. Jude Dream Home in Atlanta, that we knew we wanted to be a part of it again,” said Warren Jolly, President of The Providence Group. “This is a wonderful opportunity for The Providence Group, our trade partners and our community to support the lifesaving work happening at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and make a difference in the lives of the children and their families battling cancer and other life-threatening diseases.”
The 2024 St. Jude Dream Home® will be located in Sawnee Village in Cumming, Georgia. The groundbreaking ceremony took place on November 29, 2023 and was attended by The Providence Group team, its trade partners, local St. Jude donors, volunteers, sponsors and others.
