No matter who we are or where we come from, we all deserve to have a decent life. We deserve to feel strength and stability day after day. We deserve to know we have the power to take care of ourselves and build our own futures.
At Habitat for Humanity of York County, this is what unites us. Through shelter, we empower. Our shared vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Because you, me, we – we’re all humans. And every single one of us deserves an opportunity for a better future.
Habitat for Humanity of York County pursues a community development model for our work which we refer to as Neighborhood Revitalization. This model directs our efforts toward defined neighborhoods within our geographic service area allowing us to concentrate our work and leverage our resources along with other collaborative partners to enhance and improve the overall quality of life of area residents in keeping with their aspirations. The Paradise neighborhood in Fort Mill and the Roosevelt neighborhood in Clover are just a couple of our current projects.
HopeBuilders are some of our most passionate supporters, and I want to invite you to join them today. These vital donors are our foundation of support to help families in a powerful way — by making a small monthly gift to build a better future.
Have you ever seen a home framed in three days? That is exactly what the great folks at J.M. Cope accomplished. Thank you to Andrew Cope and Stephen Pharr for your leadership and support. We are grateful to the team of talented and dedicated associates who hammered, sawed and erected our 2017 Builders Blitz home. Thank you for your amazing support!
Publix Super Markets Charities contributed $80,000 to Habitat for Humanity of York County to build a new home in partnership with a homebuyer in need of decent and affordable housing. Publix’s associates will partner with Meka and raise the walls of the first of four homes to be built by York County Habitat in 2017. Additionally, the affiliate will complete 37 home repair projects as well. Publix’s associates officially launched construction of the home at a kickoff event held Wednesday, February 22 at 11:00 AM at 1635 Pineburr Lane in Rock Hill.
