Berkeley Habitat helps families in need of a decent place to live build strength, stability and independence through affordable housing.

Meet the Harrison Family

We are thrilled to announce our 44th Habitat home will be for Tia Harrison and her two children. Their new home will be a foundation for long-term growth and stability.

Tia feels blessed to have this opportunity to provide her children with a safe, decent, affordable house. She is excited her family will be close to Community's Hope Impact Center which provides many great programs to local residents.

Over the next few weeks our volunteer schedule will be opening up so be sure to watch for upcoming build opportunities. A donation today will bring Tia one step closer to her dream of owning a home.

Saying Goodbye

It is with mixed emotions announcing that our long-time Construction Manager, Jennings Jackson Jr., will be building his last two homes with Berkeley Habitat over the next few months.

Jennings has been part of our Habitat family for over 10 years and has constructed over 20 houses, a food pantry, bus shelters, and a Community Center.

Join us on our next two builds as we bring new hope to families in need and celebrate the success Jennings has brought to our affiliate.

Thank you, Jennings, for your commitment and dedication to our mission. You will be missed.

PlayHouse Project

On Saturday, December 4th, Habitat for Humanity Affiliates from around the Lowcountry are hosting the Playhouse Project event.

The event is made of up teams that will be building a playhouse to be delivered to a child in time for the Christmas season while raising money for Habitat for Humanity.

Team up with your friends, family, and co-workers to build a playhouse with us or support one of our fundraising teams!

Volunteer at the ReStore

Whatever your project, let us help you with the items you no longer need stay out of our local landfill.

You can schedule a donation pick up online or by calling 843-572-9191 or drop offs at our ReStore are accepted Tuesday through Saturday 9:00-4:30.

Proceeds from the sale of your donated goods help families build a foundation for the future.

Don't have stuff? You can make an impact in our community while having a great time with fun people by volunteering at our ReStore. www.berkeleyhabitat.org/volunteer
