Sherman just got $300,000 in federal funding — and it’s going toward the parts of this city that need it most.
This money comes through a Community Development Block Grant and will support local nonprofits like Habitat for Humanity, improve parks, and continue clearing blighted and unsafe properties across Sherman. About $60,000 goes directly to nonprofits. The rest helps tear down abandoned structures and open those lots up for new homes and future investment.
City leaders say programs like this have already helped create hundreds of buildable lots — especially on the east side of Sherman.
That’s not just a feel-good story. That’s real infrastructure for growth.
If you could direct this investment to one area of Sherman, where would it be? Drop it in the comments.
