Two adult group homes-one designed to house six women, the other six men-are to be built on land generously donated by The Presbyterian Communities of South Carolina in Easley.  Each home, approximately 3,000 square feet, will match the architecture of the guest houses on the Easley campus.  The interior design of each home will meet all state and federal requirements.

Why are we building these homes?

We are building these homes because there is a crying need for such care for adults with special needs.  Waiting lists for state-managed homes are years long.  But more than meeting an urgent need, these homes will provide a  Christian-based environment for special needs adults.  InDwellings, a faith-based initiative of Foothills Presbytery and the Presbyterian Church (USA), will work diligently to ensure that our residents experience God's grace and love as they achieve their human potential in the context of a good Christian home.      

What is the financial goal for this campaign?

$950,000 is an initial goal, because state funding for such homes is very limited. 

What will these funds purchase?

Funds are needed to build the homes, purchase vans for transportaion of the residents, hire certified staff for the supervision of the residents and to provide care and programs for InDwellings residents.  InDwellins would like to raise enough so funds from the principal would sustain the homes in perpetuity as well as build new homes. 

Who will help us achieve the goal?

InDwellings is seeking support from a variety of sources.  We are especially seeking the financial support of churches, individuals, corporations, civic organizations and foundations within the bounds of Foothills Presbytery and with ties to the Presbyterian Church (USA).  Please see the donations page on this site for giving information and to download a pledge form.
