Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity (FAHFH) is proud of its partnership with the North Carolina Office of State Budget and Management Disaster Recovery (NC OSBM-DR) where they recently completed the demolition and rebuilding of two homes for local community members in Clinton, North
Carolina.
This initiative underscores FAHFH’s commitment to providing safe and affordable housing solutions for families in need and NC OSBM-DR’s mission to rebuild disaster-affected homes.
The homes, located at 1106 Phillips Street and 502 Stetson Street in Clinton, North Carolina, 28328, represent a significant step towards revitalizing the local community impacted by recent hurricanes and fostering stability for residents.
Both properties were severely damaged due to the combined effects of Hurricanes Matthew and Florence, to the point where repairing the structures would have proved uneconomic, OSBM-DR was able to support the reconstruction of replacement homes with grant funding from State Disaster recovery funds designated for Hurricane Florence and Hurricane Matthew recovery.
Thanks to the generous support of the state of NC with disaster recovery funds appropriated by the General Assembly following Hurricanes Florence and Matthew, and with the support of OSBM-DR through the Governor’s office, the reconstruction costs were covered by a combination of State disaster
recovery funding and charitable grants managed by Habitat, alleviating financial burdens, and ensuring access to quality housing. Fayetteville Habitat handled the project’s coordination, collaborating closely with EverDream Builders to ensure the successful completion of both homes.
FAHFH held home dedication ceremonies on March 18, 2024, where the homeowners officially received the keys to their newly rebuilt homes.
