Operation Home’s 2011 Drum-It-Up Auction, held Sunday October 23, raised well over $100,000. This annual event has become a yearly highlight for Operation Home, and serves as the group’s major source of funding each year. Through generous donations from business owners and individuals throughout the Lowcountry, Operation Home was able to provide over 60 auction items to a capacity crowd of bidders at Mount Pleasant’s Red Drum Restaurant. Operation Home will use the money raised to support their critical home repair program, which is on track to serve 60 families in 2012.

Operation Home’s mission is to help people remain in their homes by increasing safety and accessibility through the coordination of critical home repairs for low-income residents of Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester Counties. Operation Home receives referrals from a wide network of providers, including home health agencies, utility companies, churches, schools, disability service centers, and many other social service agencies.

Last Year We Helped…

Operation Home made 51 emergency home repairs in 2011, using donated labor on 23 of those cases. Of the 51 homes repaired, 75% of the homeowners were disabled and unable to work. To receive assistance with our emergency repairs, all homeowners must be very low income and also must either be elderly, disabled, or have at least one child in the home.
