Publix managers were on hand as Habitat for Humanity of Gaston County held a groundbreaking ceremony for a home sponsored by Publix Charities. They were proud to celebrate with new homeowner Alissa Smith (second from right).

Smith, a mother of four, was given the surprise news in December of 2016 that Publix Charities would be fully funding her home, along with 60 others throughout the Southeast.
