Brayson Homes has constructed the Transplant House with the

understanding that when the house is purchased, 100 percent of the profits

is donated to the foundation. The amount of the check presented at the

recent Highland Lake ceremony was much larger than the usual builder

profits from a home sale, because many of Brayson's suppliers, contractors

and others made donations of labor, materials and services.

The 1997-'98 Transplant House, located at 1620 Highland Farm Dr., was

bought by Norman and Nancy Stenzel. Maria Geller of Brayson Homes was the

listing and selling agent.

The third project of this kind by Brayson Homes, the 1997-'98

Transplant House brings to $222,638 the approximate total of funds brought

in since the Gwinnett-based home builder initiated the project several

years ago. The 1995-'96 project resulted in a $65,058 donation, and the

1996-'97 effort brought in $71,399.

The list of contributors to the 1997-'98 House, in addition to Brayson

Homes, includes the following:

The Transplant House project has a twofold purpose: to bring in needed

funding for GTF and to encourage more people to sign up to donate organs.

GTF's goal is to provide financial and other assistance to transplant

patients and their families when these benefits are not available through

private, insurance and governmental sources.

Brayson Homes, founded in 1977, has built nearly 3,500 new homes in

Gwinnett County. The company is also currently active in DeKalb and Cobb

Counties.
