GA GIVES DAY 2024

This Georgia Gives Day, we invite you to support Habitat for Humanity Milledgeville-Baldwin County and help us continue our mission of providing affordable housing for families in need. Exciting news: Thanks to the award of the Community HOME Investment Program (CHIP) grant, we have the opportunity to continue building homes in Baldwin County!

And there's even more to celebrate—your support will help us build our 20th home! This milestone is part of our ongoing commitment to providing safe and affordable housing for families in Baldwin County. With the CHIP grant providing crucial funding, we need your donations to make this landmark achievement a reality. Your contributions will go directly towards the construction and completion of this new home, offering a family the stability and security they need.

Why Does Your Donation Matter?

1. Building Homes, Building Hope 

At Habitat for Humanity, we believe that everyone deserves a decent place to live. A stable home offers more than just shelter—it provides a foundation for better health, improved education outcomes, and the ability to break the cycle of poverty. Your donation directly impacts families in Baldwin County, helping them achieve the dream of homeownership.

2. Maximizing the CHIP Grant

The CHIP grant is a tremendous resource, but it's only part of the equation. With your support, we can cover additional construction costs, purchase materials, and expand our efforts to serve more families. Every dollar you contribute helps us build more homes and create lasting change in our community.

3. Revitalizing Baldwin County

Affordable housing plays a critical role in community revitalization. When families move into a Habitat home, it doesn't just benefit them—it uplifts entire neighborhoods. By reducing blight and increasing homeownership, we're contributing to a stronger, more vibrant Baldwin County. Your donation ensures that we can keep making progress toward a brighter future for everyone.

4. A Hand Up, Not a Handout

At Habitat, our homeowners work side by side with volunteers to build their homes. They invest hundreds of hours of sweat equity and take on affordable mortgages, giving them a real stake in their future. Your support empowers families to gain stability and independence, fostering a sense of pride and accomplishment that lasts for generations.

5. Community Involvement and Volunteerism

When you donate to Habitat for Humanity, you're not just helping us build houses—you're building a stronger community. We rely on local volunteers, donors, and partners to bring our mission to life. By giving on Georgia Gives Day, you join a network of people who are committed to making Baldwin County a better place to live for all.
