Donna Heard’s Story

“They called one name, that person didn’t answer. They called a second name that person didn’t respond. They called a third name and they didn’t respond… finally I said to my sister, ‘They are getting ready to call my name.’ And then they called my name,” describes Donna Heard of the Housing Lottery.

It took a moment to sink in, but Donna soon realized she wasn’t dreaming. Her first home had just become a reality! “I felt like I just won the moon.”

A single mother who works as a security guard, Donna and her twelve-year-old son, Quincy, had been hunting for a new home for some time. The Housing Lottery was the perfect opportunity for a moderate-income buyer like herself.  Donna learned that day that purchasing a home in Howard County is easier than she thought it would be.

Participants in the Housing Lottery at the Come Home to Howard County Housing Fair must be present to win. After submitting a completed application and the appropriate documents, all Donna had to do was wait patiently and attended the fair. But she also took several classes to teach her about the home buying process.
