4 2 6 Cairo

Finalizing a project always brings us joy. It has been a little over a month since our peace prep family moved into their new home. Our goal with this project, along with our other projects, is to keep English Avenue residents in their community. This project was a fun one for our construction team. Due to extremely generous donors we were able to provide a high quality renovation to a house the City of Atlanta deemed uninhabitable. Our new residents love their new house. They are looking forward to the holiday season to continue making their house a home.

Welcome Home!

Our residents have occupied this home since September. The 426 Cairo project began in 2022 with the hope of increasing the amount of single family homes that are affordable and of quality. This home went from uninhabitable to now including 4 bedrooms, 2 full size bathrooms, 2 Living rooms, laundry room, garage and out door patio. Check out our work for more photos. 

One Step at a Time

One Step at a Time Sometimes the vision in your mind just needs a jolt of persistence and determination to make it a reality. The vision of Peace Prep Academy was born from a need to provide quality education to students and ensuring that their needs are met. But when thinking about the whole child, education can only reach so far. The child's life outside of school was crucial to their ability to succeed. Fast forward a year later, oaksATL was born.

The Space to Dream

A Dreamers Space In the same spirit of beauty in partnership, OaksATL is partnering with Peace Prep, Roots Down GA, and The Fruitful Community Foundation to imagine an even better landscape...together.On August 17, 2023, our OaksATL community came out into the lawn and soared into dreamland. The adults and children gave multiple suggestions about what they would like to see in their shared space. What would make them eager to spent time at home in their common space? The ideas were grand! Items such as vegetable and herb gardens, firepits, outdoor seating, and shade grew anticipating hearts. Reasonable, practical, and even edible ideas are what we want to see come to life. Stay tuned to see the progress and dreams become a reality.
