History
Habitat for
Humanity of Matthews was incorporated as a nonprofit, Christian organization on
July 10, 1989. Since that time, the affiliate has completed
communities throughout Matthews, including Fullwood Trace and an area
along
Tank Town Road. The most recently completed community, Rainbow Ridge, is
a 34-home community located in downtown Matthews. Thanks to the
partnership between homeowners, sponsors, and volunteers, more than 65
homes have been built in the Matthews community to date.
In 2007, Habitat for Humanity of Matthews
launched its first neighborhood revitalization effort in Eastwood
Forest, a subdivision located along the boundary between Mecklenburg
County and Union County.
Our most recent
project is a new Habitat Matthews neighborhood fronting Matthews School
Road, called Sunrise Crossing. Sunrise Crossing will consist of 18 new
homes.
