Habitat St. Johns continues to make home ownership possible for many who might otherwise find it impossible.
So far this year, Habitat St. Johns has closed on 10 homes in its Volusia Woods community. And it’s on track to close on 18 by the end of June. There will be an additional 18 homes on McDonald Avenue, and all will be closed by the end of June 2026.
At that point, Habitat St. Johns will have completed the Volusia Woods 36-home neighborhood within two years. Next up will be a 17-home community called Cypress Village.
This is all pending funding and homeowners being able to secure USDA mortgages. With so much uncertainty about federal funding at this time, the organization is hoping people will support this much-needed cause.
Toward that end is St. Augustine Giving Day, set for noon May 7 to noon May 8.
Once again, there will be several awards based on fundraising efforts and prizes during different times throughout the event. More details will be announced soon.
