Who are We Helping?

This year Prince of Peace is helping two families achieve the dream of home ownership:

Lillian Washington and her daughter, Jennifer
Lillian was born and raised in Birmingham. She is one of nine siblings. Lillian has four grown children and five grandchildren. She graduated from Wenonah High School and attends Bryant Chapel AME Church. Lillian enjoys cooking, cleaning and watching her grandchildren grow.

Jennifer was born in Montgomery and raised in Birmingham. Jennifer graduated from Wenonah High School and enjoys attending Bryant Chapel with her mom. Jennifer enjoys reading, crocheting, dancing and listening to music. Jennifer aspires to be a nurse.

Lillian and Jennifer say owning their own home will positively change their lives because they will finally have a better living environment and a true place to call home. ”Through blessings from God all things are possible,” says Lillian.
