Habitat for Humanity Milledgeville Baldwin County

Habitat for Humanity Milledgeville-Baldwin County (HFHMBC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping families build safe, affordable places to call home. We believe that affordable housing is the foundation of strong, stable communities. Thanks to the generosity of our donors and the dedication of our volunteers, we are able to provide affordable housing opportunities and vital resources to families in need.

HFHMBC was incorporated in 1994 and completed its first home in 1996. By 2002, we had built 11 homes, and in 2018, we celebrated our 19th completed house. Although construction slowed during the COVID-19 pandemic, our commitment to Baldwin County never wavered.

In 2024, we were awarded a $600,000 Community HOME Investment Program (CHIP) grant to construct four new single-family homes—an investment that reignited our building efforts. Through a partnership with Macon Area Habitat for Humanity (MAHFH), we completed our 20th home in 2025. Together, HFHMBC and MAHFH are currently constructing two additional homes, with plans to build even more in the coming years.

We are grateful for this partnership and excited about the expanded impact it allows us to make for families in Milledgeville-Baldwin County.Dedication of HFHMBC's 20th Home 10/2025GCSU Honor's College Volunteers at Ross Ave. 10/2025

Habitat partner families are carefully screened to ensure they meet our three primary criteria for homeownership:

1. Need for safe or adequate housing

2. Ability to pay an affordable mortgage

3. Willingness to partner, including completing a minimum of 300 hours of sweat equity

Homes are sold through a 20-year, 0% interest mortgage. Monthly payments include the mortgage principal along with prorated escrows for homeowner’s insurance and county and city taxes. Habitat partners with families throughout the life of the loan to help support long-term stability.

Habitat for Humanity Milledgeville-Baldwin County is sustained by the generous support of churches, businesses, community groups, and individuals who believe that everyone deserves a decent place to live.
