Lakewood Ranch, Fla. – December 12, 2025 – Employees from Southwest Florida’s premier private homebuilder, Neal Communities and its luxury home division, Neal Signature Homes, volunteered their time to build and decorate playhouses that will be given to families with young children through the Salvation Army’s South Sarasota County Cottages for Kids program.
The playhouses were displayed at Downtown Wellen before being delivered to selected families.
“This project is a great opportunity for our employees to use their talents to help a great cause,” says Christine McKelvey, director of marketing for Neal Communities. “We are honored to be part of this community effort to give kids a playhouse where they can have creative fun and make memories with their family and friends.”
Neal Signature Homes and Neal Communities build in several communities in Wellen Park, including the new Palmera at Wellen Park, which features its Cruise Series of homes. The builder also has communities with final opportunities, including Avelina and Wysteria. Grand Palm and Boca Royale Golf and Country Club are also nearby communities offering easy access to all that Wellen Park has to offer.
Neal Signature Homes offers eight available floor plans in EVERLY, Wellen Park’s first luxury and custom home neighborhood. Floor plans range from 2,562 to 4,189 square feet with pricing starting in the $900s.
