Brandao House
Our second build on Church Street for a deserving family
About the Brandao family
"Ms. Derryll" as she is affectionately known, is a fixture in the character and legacy of Fayetteville. Ms. Derryll is a Fayetteville native and activist for over 25 years, has served on the Fayetteville Planning & Zoning Commission, and has been instrumental in community development, advocating for Church Street improvements.
Born in 1948, she's an alumna of Clark Atlanta University, and once assisted U.S. Senator Wyche Fowler before returning to Fayetteville. Derryll remains an integral part of the community, and is a greeter at the City of Fayetteville City Hall.
About the build
Ms. Derryll was displaced from her home in 2023 and is in a temporary living situation. She does not have the resources to be able to afford a home. Square Foot Ministry stepped in, along with many in our community who have been impacted by Ms. Deryll's optimism and care, and are working to bring her back home to the place where she grew up and loves...Church Street.
Help bring Ms. Derryll home!
