Paz Holley donor declares business challenge, 40 for 40 In the blinking of an eye on October 13, 2017, five young Adair County children became homeless when their mother was murdered and their father was taken to jail. Thanks to their aunt and uncle, the little Paz children now have the name Paz Holley, and with the help of hundreds of donors, they will have a home by Thanksgiving 2018. - LW Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Linda Waggener Since March 12, 2018, in just 120 days, the Paz Holley committee, working with J.O.Y. Ministries, accepting gifts from churches, individuals and organizations, has brought this fund to over the halfway point, from zero to $68,868. Stacey Wilson says, "now, if 40 businesses - or individuals - give a thousand dollars each, we'll buy this house and have those ten children in it before Thanksgiving!" She made her business gift from Community Medical and challenged ColumbiaMagazine.com which is accepting her challenge and joining the business goal at 8amCT July 20, 2018. In the blinking of an eye on October 13, 2017, five young Adair County children became homeless when their mother was murdered and their father was taken to jail. Thanks to their aunt and uncle who already had five children of their own, the little Paz children now have the name Paz Holley, and with the help of hundreds of donors, they are going to have a home to fit the size of the family of 12 by Thanksgiving 2018. With Stacey Wilson's donation presented to Paz Holley project chairman Rick Wilson and committee member Marian Grant, Paz-Holley's remaining balance is now $40,000 to buy the house, valued at $318,000, for the price Adanta has offered of $108,000.
