Cozy Home Groundbreaking Ceremony & Volunteer Day was a great success thanks to our wonderful partners, sponsors, and volunteers!

​On April 16, Edisto Habitat for Humanity, in partnership with Michael Payne, we broke ground on our first Cozy Home. This was an innovative pilot program is a spin on the "tiny home" concept and will build with our Go Green initiatives. Thank you to our volunteers who helped build the foundation for new opportunities and homeownership for Michael. A special thank you to our Premier Home Sponsors, CF Evans Construction and First Baptist Church of Orangeburg. Our Tea Sponsor, Rachelle Jamerson-Holmes, provided Rachelle's Island Tea, and our Coffee Sponsor was Scooter's Coffee.

How Homeownership Works

Our Habitat Partner Families are required to meet three core criteria. Applicants undergo a rigorous vetting process and must complete 20 hours of financial education and homeownership classes. They are also required to contribute between 250 and 350 hours of “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.

In addition, we have increased our impact through new programs, including financial stability and education, disaster awareness, preparedness, and recovery, workplace and job skills, our ramp program in partnership with Carpenters for Christ, and our advocacy efforts at the federal, state, and local levels.

In January 2026, we'll break ground on our 100th Home Block, kicking it off with our 100th Edisto Habitat Home in Orangeburg.

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.
