Notes on Giving through Habitat for Humanity International

1.  The only way we receive funds given to Habitat for Humanity International is for the donor to designate their gift to an affiliate (like Sea Island) - and this needs to be chosen at the time the gift is given.
2.  Effective July 1, 2006, all donations that are given to Habitat for Humanity International and designated to an affiliate (like Sea Island) will incur a 10.4% "processing fee."  

*Donations made directly to Sea Island Habitat do not incur any processing fee.

Our Fundraising Goals- Each year, Sea Island Habitat for Humanity relies on donors to provide its financial support.   Sea Island Habitat for Humanity has set a goal, God willing, of building 30 homes in 2008.  At a cost of $55,000 for construction materials per home – Sea Island Habitat must raise $1,200,000 for building materials and infrastructure - here is how you can help:

Whole House SponsorshipAs a whole house donor, you are able to fully fund the construction of a new home for a deserving family - $50,000.  See our current Whole House Donors.

Adopt A Lot  - Allows individuals and corporations an opportunity to become a “friend” of Sea Island Habitat for Humanity by “adopting a lot” at a cost of $5,000.   The money helps offset the total cost of an improved lot (ready to build on).   See our current Adoptees.

Carpenters Club (Carpenter, Builder, Master Builder)- Gives Sea Island Habitat an opportunity to build more homes, because your  quarterly contribution is based on the number of houses that we complete. 

In-Kind Donor – If you are a part of a corporation that may be able to donate in-kind supplies (building materials, administrative services, computers, etc.), this type of donation is just as needed as monetary donations.    

Land GiftingLand is a key component in our mission to eliminate poverty housing on the Islands of Johns and Wadmalaw.  We are constantly looking for generous donors who would be willing to gift land for a new Habitat home or neighborhood.  If you are interested in becoming a land donor, please contact our offices.+

Planned Giving – Sea Island Habitat for Humanity welcomes donors who are willing to donate planned gifts.  What are planned gifts?  A planned gift refers to charitable gifts that require planning before they are made.  Some benefits of planned giving are increased income for the donor or others, reduction of the donor’s income taxes, avoidance of capital gains taxes, and the provision of asset management for your heirs.
