The mission of Humanities Foundation is to end homelessness throughout the Southeast by increasing the availability of affordable housing through nonprofit housing development, rental and utility assistance, homelessness prevention, advocacy and education.
Since 1992, Humanities Foundation has been a leader in addressing the affordable housing crisis throughout the Lowcountry. By providing a pleasant, safe living environment and other educational opportunities and services, the Foundation improves the quality of life for many low income families and individuals.
The Foundation has significantly impacted the community by developing over almost 1000 units with another 114 in pre-development of affordable housing – with another 71 units under construction and 71 units in pre-development – providing homes for low-to-moderate-income individuals, including those with special needs such as the disabled, single mothers, and senior citizens. The Foundation hopes to continue building community through affordable housing and expanding its reach to other areas of the state and the southeast.
