39 Elliott Street

On February 9, 2020, many gathered to celebrate the dedication of the beautiful new home of Laye Camara and Fatoumata Sylla, and their children, Mariepierre (5) and Youssouff (4). Raise the Roof was honored to partner with this family to help them build their own home. We are full of respect and will always wish them well.

39 Elliott Street is Raise the Roof’s sixteenth sponsored Habitat build. Dedication ceremony attendees honored the family’s accomplishment. Left to right in front: The Honorable Ron C.
