Sunday afternoon Brandy Mullenbach became the proud owner of a home through the Habitat for Humanity program. It is the 15th such home that Habitat has constructed or remodeled in Logan County.

To become a Habitat homeowner, candidates must give sweat equity hours to Habitat programs, including the construction of their own home.

Once the home is completed, Habitat has a blessing and dedication of the home and turns the keys over to the new owner.
