Description
Join Habitat for Humanity of Georgetown County for a one-week Collegiate Challenge service trip and make a direct impact in a community where 1 in 5 households spend half or more of their income on housing and 16% of residents live below the poverty level. Habitat Georgetown has already built 121 homes and repaired more than 80, and your week of service helps continue that momentum. You’ll work alongside future Habitat homeowners and our skilled construction team throughout the week — no experience needed, and lunches are provided on service days. Housing is provided with a $250 contribution, giving you a comfortable home base as you explore Georgetown’s historic waterfront, museums, shops, and the natural beauty of the Lowcountry during your free time.Contact:Patrick Brannen, Marketing and Community Engagement CoordinatorE: [email protected]: +1 (843) 331-5757
