–  September 2026  –

For many years, churches and faith communities have been at the heart of our mission to serve families throughout Orangeburg County and the surrounding areas.

​As we look toward the future, we believe God is calling us to deepen these partnerships and expand the ways we work together to serve our neighbors. In response to that calling, we are forming Edisto Habitat’s Faith in Action Ministry, a collaborative effort that brings together faith leaders and congregations who share a commitment to putting God’s love into action through service.

Learn how you can help put God's love into action by emailing our Executive Director Jessica Burgoyne at [email protected].
Welcome Home, Sherrell!
​
Friday, June 5th, marked an incredible milestone for our mission as we gathered as a community to celebrate not only our 100th home and our 100th Habitat Family Partner, but also the first home on our 100th Home Block, a milestone made possible by the hard work, generosity, and partnership of so many. 

We are overwhelmed with gratitude for every single person who came out to celebrate this monumental milestone and for the countless lives that have been impacted through affordable homeownership. Completing our 100th home is a testament to what is possible when a community comes together around a shared vision of ensuring everyone has a safe, decent, and affordable place to call home.

We have officially broken ground on our 100th Home Block!

On Saturday, February 21, the 100th Home Block Ribbon Cutting and Celebration marked a historic milestone for Edisto Habitat for Humanity and our entire community. This achievement was made possible by the dedication and support of countless individuals and partners who have championed our mission over the years. During the celebration, the foundation of a new home stood as a powerful symbol of what our community can accomplish together. 

This moment belonged to so many, including our volunteers, sponsors, donors, our long list of faith-based partners, our extensive list of community partners, businesses, and foundations, our city officials and elected leaders at the local, state, and federal levels, and to the families who partner with us. Thank you to the very long list of those who helped us accomplish this milestone.

Welcome Home, Michael!

On August 6, we held our Cozy Home Dedication Ceremony and Volunteer Day in honor of our family partner, Michael! Leaders from the community and our Premier Home Sponsors shared encouraging words, inspiring the community to invest in the Habitat mission. Michael received the keys to his new home, opening the door to new possibilities. After the ceremony, the Claflin Women's Volleyball team helped put the final touches on the Cozy Home. 

Thank you to our Premier Home Sponsors, CF Evans Construction, First Baptist Church of Orangeburg, and Carpenters for Christ.

Thank you to our lunch sponsor, the Orangeburg Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.

How Our Homeownership Program Works

Our Habitat Partner Families are required to meet three core criteria. Applicants undergo a rigorous vetting process and must complete financial education and homeownership classes. They are also required to contribute “sweat equity” by volunteering on Habitat construction sites in support of previously selected families and in the building of their own homes. Prior construction experience is not necessary. All volunteers are guided by Edisto Habitat's expert Build Crew Volunteers. 
Since the formation of Edisto Habitat for Humanity in 1991, we have been providing families in Orangeburg and the surrounding areas with safe, healthy places to call home. 
​
Over the past 35 years, we've proudly expanded our services to include financial stability and education, disaster awareness, preparedness, and recovery, workplace and job skills development, our Ramp Program in partnership with A Brush with Kindness, and our advocacy efforts at the federal, state, and local levels.

In early 2026, we'll break ground on our 100th Home Block, marking the occasion with our 100th Edisto Habitat home.

We work to eliminate barriers to a safe, ​healthy place to call home.

Habitat for Humanity International
Driven by the vision that everyone deserves a safe, healthy place to call home, Habitat for Humanity began in 1976 as a grassroots effort on a community farm in southern Georgia. The Christian housing organization has since grown to become a leading global nonprofit working in over 1,000 communities throughout the U.S. and in over 70 countries.  In that time, more than 22 million people worldwide have partnered with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home.
