Community's Hope IMPACT Center
Moncks Corner
Habitat for Humanity of Berkeley County is proud to have partnered with local community organizations in building the Community's Hope IMPACT Center in the heart of Moncks Corner, SC.
The location of the new community center is historically known for hosting local baseball games and community gatherings. Habitat and it's partners worked to recreate the centralized gather location by constructing the 1600 sq. ft. community center.
The Community's Hope IMPACT Center will be overseen by the Grace Impact Development Center and be used for after-school programming, specialized job training, civic education, senior programs and community functions within the Wall Street Community. The achievement in building the community center is projected to become a model for future building projects in other rural communities across southeast. A grant from Lowes was a catalyst towards starting the building process.
“ The enormity of this project and the necessary collaborations shows us that what we believe for is actually possible ,” said Tory Liferidge, pastor of Grace Reformed Episcopal Church who helped spearhead the project. “It means a lot. I see these little kids running around with smiles on their faces knowing that this is their place. I see seniors who are waiting like ‘When are we going to have our program’ because they know this is their place. That’s what means the most for me.”
