Flint River Habitat for Humanity

🏡🎉 What a wonderful day of celebration!

Last Saturday, Flint River Habitat for Humanity hosted a Block Party to honor and welcome our five newest Habitat homeowner families to the neighborhood! Families, friends, Habitat homeowners, board members, staff, and supporters gathered together for an afternoon filled with games, music, great food, and fellowship. We also had the opportunity to pray together as a community!

A special thank you goes to the amazing volunteers from Greenbriar Church and MOVE Christian Church who helped make the day so special by assisting with the games, music, and lunch. Your servant hearts and dedication to our mission helped create a memorable celebration for everyone involved.

During our homeowner dedication ceremony, each family received a Family Bible and a special gift basket filled with generous donations from Procter & Gamble and the Habitat ReStore. We are grateful for these thoughtful gifts as our families begin this exciting new chapter of homeownership.

We are proud to welcome these families home and celebrate all they have accomplished through hard work, perseverance, and partnership. Their journeys are a powerful reminder of the life-changing impact of affordable homeownership.

And the excitement continues! We are looking forward to beginning Phase 2 of home construction in our Brook Hollow neighborhood this fall.

Have you ever wondered what the interior of our Habitat homes look like?! 🏠 Once selected into our Homeowner Program, our families are able to choose their property lot, floor plan, and facade from the plans we have available. Then, when the home build gets further along, they are also able to choose colors for their exterior paint, interior paint, cabinets, countertops, flooring, and fixtures! 🔨🔩🚿🚪🎨🫟 And to top it off, our homeowners receive a 0% interest 30-year mortgage for their homes!

None of this could be done without YOU!! Our homeowners are so thankful for all of our supporters, donors, and volunteers! If you'd like to donate items to our ReStore, drop off anytime at 2815 Old Dawson Rd, or call 229-446-8199 to schedule a free donation pick-up!

A huge thank you to Synovus for spending time volunteering at the ReStore! 🏠🧰🛒

Our volunteers truly make all the difference at Flint River Habitat for Humanity. During their time with us, the Synovus team sorted donations, organized items, and cleaned gently used goods to prepare them for our customers. Every small action helps us move closer to building safe, affordable homes for families in our community. 🏡🛠️🔑📫

Did you know? Volunteering in our ReStores is incredibly impactful. Every item donated and every purchase made helps fund the construction of new Habitat homes. 🛍️🛒

Home sweet HOMEOWNER 🏡🔑🎉 This week has been the best!! Our next newest homeowner, LaQuan, closed on her Habitat home!

LaQuan has been part of Habitat’s homeownership program for 3 years, working towards her dream home!! She has completed over 300 sweat equity hours, completed Financial Peace University, and paid closing costs for her home. What greater reward than a 30-year 0% interest mortgage on her new home?!

We are always appreciative of Moore, Clarke, DuVall, & Rodgers for caring for our homeowners through the closing process, AND for all of our donors, customers, and supporters for helping us make home a reality for well-deserving families in our community!

What a joyful day celebrating the dedication of a new Habitat home! 🏡

Welcome home, Pascoe family! We are incredibly grateful to Phoebe Putney Health System for their generous support and the many employees who volunteered their time to help make this home possible. Phoebe's partnership has truly set the pace for what’s possible when community partners step up!
