Every day, more and more families in South Metro Atlanta find themselves in a struggle to keep a decent roof over their heads.
Caught in a poverty cycle of unpredictable rent increases, overcrowded conditions, or lack of access to land and affordable financing, these families live with a constant burden of uncertainty, stress, and fear.
We believe that safe, decent and affordable shelter plays an absolutely critical role in helping families to create a new cycle, one filled with possibilities and progress. Affordable homeownership frees families and fosters the skills and confidence they need to invest in themselves and their communities. The outcomes can be long-lasting and life-changing .
At Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity ( SCHFH ) we help low income families find opportunity, achieve stability, and improve their futures. We build stronger families and neighborhoods through homeowner education which includes financial literacy and by partnering with donors and volunteers to construct attractive, affordable homes and to repair existing homes .

We are celebrating a HUGE milestone at Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity! Last week, we officially closed on our 235th home, welcoming homeowner Robert and his family into their brand new home and a bright new chapter. This dedication was an extra special home blessing, as it was fully funded by The Tibbetts Family in loving memory of their son, Lane Tibbetts, who passed away earlier this year. It serves as a beautiful testament to the incredible strength of community; how we lift each other up during the hardest times and create a legacy of kindness that transcends loss. There is an incredibly touching full circle moment, too: Lane himself grew up right here in Clayton County, where Robert and his family are now proud homeowners. This is why we continue to do this work because a home is a foundation for a new beginning, a community of support, and in moments like this, a lasting legacy of love. Welcome home, Robert and family! More photos can be found on our Facebook Page.

Just two weeks after celebrating our 40th anniversary, we are thrilled to announce that we are about to officially close on our 235th home! This exciting milestone marks home number 3 out of 13 in our ambitious Baker’s Dozen journey! Every key handed over brings us one step closer to ensuring more local families have a safe, affordable, and permanent place to call home. The work we do is truly transforming lives, generations, and whole communities. Thank you to our incredible donors, sponsors, volunteers, and partner families for helping us keep the momentum going! #schfh40 #wherehopehasanaddress #buildwithschabitat #habitatforhumanity

Thank you to the Wells Fargo volunteers who worked alongside our homeowner to lay sod and tackle interior painting, helping bring their future home closer to completion.

In 1986, a group of faith and community leaders came together to address substandard housing in Clayton County. That gathering laid the foundation for Clayton County Habitat for Humanity, the organization you know today as Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity. As we look forward to our 40th anniversary on October 3, we honor those beginnings and everyone who has helped build hope along the way. Help us carry that mission forward through our $40 for 40 campaign. Donate $40 to support safe, affordable housing and help more families find a place to call home.

We remember. We honor. We build hope. September 11 will forever hold a profound place in our nation’s history. We remember the lives lost, the families forever changed and the first responders who ran toward danger to help others. Those who paid the ultimate price remind us that courage, compassion and service can carry a community through even its darkest moments. That is why we chose to commemorate this day through service. Over the course of two days, first responders, emergency personnel and community members gathered in McDonough for our Building Hope 9/11 Day of Remembrance. They rolled up their sleeves, helped build a home and moved our mission of affordable homeownership forward. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our event sponsors @behrpaint @axordesign @hansgrohe_usa , for their commitment to building up the communities they serve. We could not have brought these meaningful days of remembrance and service to life without their partnership and support. To every volunteer who showed up ready to work, serve and honor, we thank you. This is what it looks like when remembrance becomes action and a community comes together to build hope. More photos can be found on our Facebook Page. #buildinghope #buildwithschabitat #habitatforhumanity #schfh40 #911memorial

One family. Two homes. A generational blessing. Yesterday, we had the honor of celebrating a very special double home blessing for mother-and-daughter duo, Patrice and Tiffiany, who once lived under the same roof and are now stepping into homeownership as next-door neighbors. Tiffiany began her journey with Southern Crescent Habitat first, and as Patrice came alongside her to help complete sweat equity hours, she began to imagine a path to homeownership of her own. With encouragement from her daughter, Patrice applied to the program and now, they both stand proudly as first-time homeowners. And the impact didn’t stop there. Along the way, Tiffiany’s son, Kam, discovered a genuine love for construction while spending time on the build sites so much so that our construction team and the Grey Ghosts are already talking about recruiting him! Their journey is a beautiful reminder that homeownership can open doors far beyond the front porch. It can inspire new dreams, uncover new passions, create stability, and build pathways for generations to come. We are incredibly proud of Patrice, Tiffiany, and their entire family, and grateful to have played a role in this family’s story. This is what it looks like when hope has an address...twice, right next door.

What an amazing surprise! We're still reflecting on the grace of God via @southerngracehospice that happened last month during our Home Blessings in Stockbridge. Our Henry County Women Build Ambassador, @therealaubreyrain decided she wanted to extend her efforts even further by fully furnishing both home! She also held a photoshoot with the families prior to the blessing so that they would have photos already in the home! (That was a hard task to pull off!) There wasn't a dry eye in sight as they walked into their beautiful homes realizing their furnishing had been handled. We cannot thank Aubrey and her team enough for their heart work in enhancing the homeowner experience for our hardworking homebuyers. #buildwithschabitat #habitatforhumanity #southerngracehospice #housingaffordability #stockbridgega

Yesterday was one of the most heartfelt moments we've experienced at Southern Crescent. We met the Tibbetts Family earlier this year while at the @helpbuildhope event at @b1church. After learning about our mission, they wanted to get involved! Their son, Lane, passed in January of this year and they wanted to honor his legacy by sponsoring a home build. Lane lived in Clayton County as a kid and that is exactly where this new construction home in his memory will be. The Tibbetts, along with their families and friends, braved the Georgia heat to raise the walls on this new home in our Hannah Springs Community. They also worked alongside the homeowner who, thanks to their loving generosity, will be able to create a lasting legacy for his own family. We are honored that you all chose Southern Crescent to honor your beloved son, father, brother, and friend in such a huge way. You all are truly putting God's love into action.

We've come a long way since 1986. What began as a vision to make homeownership possible for more families has grown into 40 years of building homes, strengthening neighborhoods, and creating brighter futures across the Southern Crescent. This milestone is about the people behind the homes that were built. The volunteers who picked up a hammer. The donors who believed in the mission. The partners who opened doors. The families who never gave up. And the dedicated team that continues to carry this work forward every single day. As we celebrate our 40th anniversary leading up to Constructed Couture Fashion Show & Gala, we're launching 40 Stories—a campaign that reflects on the people, moments, milestones, and lives that have shaped Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity over the last four decades. Every story reminds us that Where Hope Has an Address, lives are transformed. Here's to honoring our past, celebrating our present, and building the future. #BuildwithSCHabitat #WhereHopeHasAnAddress #ConstructedCouture #HabitatforHumanity

Yesterday was another DOUBLE Home Blessing bringing out total to FOUR for the month of June alone. Stockbridge has two new residents in Lexi & Kristle. These ladies have worked extremely hard to reach this moment and we cannot be more proud of them. The completion of these beautiful homes was possible through our partnership with The City of Stockbridge, Henry County Government, and The Stockbridge Downtown Development Authority. We were also blessed to have our Women Build Title Sponsor, Aubrey Kekiwi of Southern Grace Hospice join us and gifting our homeowners something very special. Stay tuned for that reveal! These are the moments that keep us fueled up to continue to put God's love into action by building community, homes, and hope.

Last night, we had the honor of speaking at the City of Stockbridge District 5 Town Hall presented by Mayor Pro Tem Elton Alexander. Our COO shared the story behind the two homes we've built in the City of Stockbridge and how our incredible partnership with Henry County and the City helped make homeownership a reality for two deserving families. To top it all off, we were recognized for the work Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity is doing across South Metro Atlanta. We're truly honored and grateful for the support of our partners and community. Together, we're building more than homes... we're building hope, stronger neighborhoods, and brighter futures. 🏠❤️ #SouthernCrescentHabitat #HabitatForHumanity #henrycountyga #BuildingHope

There is something powerful about the father experience. The lessons taught, the example set, and the legacy built one moment at a time. This Father’s Day, we are reflecting on a special moment from the Carter Work Project in Atlanta, where two of our beloved Grey Ghost volunteers, Charlie and Keith, had the opportunity to build alongside their daughters. To share a build site with your dad is a memory, a lesson in service, and a reminder that the work of building community is often passed down through love, dedication, and example. We are so grateful for Charlie and Keith, for the time, talent, and heart they continue to pour into Southern Crescent Habitat, and for the families they inspire both on and off the build site. Happy Father’s Day to all of the fathers, father figures, mentors, and men who continue to build something greater for the next generation.

Yesterday we had a DOUBLE Home Blessing Ceremony in our Hannah Springs Community! We have officially closed out the cul-de-sac in our 28 home subdivision and have only 5 lots left to complete! It was a great day of celebration and acknowledgement. We were blessed to be joined by some special guests. The family of the Late Congressman David Scott were in attendance as we gifted them with a commemorative hard hat in his honor. Congressman Scott along with Senators Ossoff and Warnock are responsible for the CDS funds that were utilized on these new construction builds. We were also joined by a representative from Publix Supermarkets. The @publix Supermarkets Charities also provided funding for these homes and they also were our 2026 Volunteer Group of the Year. We would like to thank all of the volunteers, donors, and supporters that enable us to continue building communities, homes, and hope.

Day 3 of Women Build in Clayton County and the energy did NOT disappoint These ladies tackled both the interior and exterior, bringing skill, strength, and serious heart to every corner of these homes. We also want to take a moment to give some special love to our Women Build Ambassador, @iamfalattab. While she may be new to the Southern Crescent family, she is absolutely no stranger to Habitat for Humanity. Falatta and her husband Steve are long-time volunteers with deep roots right here in Clayton County — and having them both on site with us was nothing short of a blessing. We are so grateful for your hearts, your hands, and your continued dedication to this mission. We cannot wait to build again together. And to Clayton County, thank you. Thank you for showing up in great numbers, like you always do. This community never misses, and we don't take that for granted.
