In the spring of 1996women of Cumberland County united and instituted a study to determine if low cost housing was needed within our community. In December of 1996 The State of Tennessee approved incorporation for the Cumberland County Habitat for Humanity.......
"Then the work of building houses began. The first house was completed in December, 1998. Houses 2 and 3 were completed in 1999, followed by 4 homes in 2000, with continued growth each year."
It takes hundreds of volunteers to build houses. In 2006 an affiliate was adopted and was announced as the Habitat Apostles Build Program where local churches sponsor a house and help to build it.
Below are some stats :
