With eager anticipation, we await the start of construction on Phase Two of Raise the Roof. Architectural and engineering reports for the rear porch and kitchen—spaces often hidden but vital to Merrehope’s character—are nearing completion. Guided by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History (MDAH), we are excited about the progress these steps promise.

As we continue to tackle challenges ahead, experts recommend addressing the damage on the front northeast corner next. This marks the beginning of initial assessments, alongside our upcoming Raise the Roof Phase 3 Capital Campaign.

Thanks to generous donors and grants, every milestone is possible.
Your contributions truly make a difference. Please join us as we continue to Raise the Roof!
