Habitat for Humanity of Greenville County

Habitat has released a limited number of individual tickets for Dinner on Ice.

Dinner on Ice is an enchanted evening that goes beyond your typical fundraiser. Guests will enjoy a unique, ice-themed dining experience on the ice, served by the Greenville Swamp Rabbits hockey players! It’s a night filled with entertainment; including a hockey shoot out contest, silent auction, cocktail hour, live music, and the popular “Table Challenges.” During the Table Challenges, attendee’s tables can challenge another table or even an individual to a hilarious task. Amusing examples in the past have included hockey players balancing dinner rolls for as long as they can or a hockey player arm wrestling an attendee! This fun-filled fundraiser event is supported by the Bon Secours Wellness Arena and the Greenville Swamp Rabbits Hockey Team. Semiformal attire is encouraged, but not required. Attendees are encouraged to dress warm – after all, it is on the ice! But don’t worry, the ice is covered, so no skates required!

Dinner on Ice Gala being held on Tuesday, November 19 from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena in downtown Greenville.

Today we celebrate the Cost of Home campaign created by Habitat International and supported by more than 400 affiliates including Greenville and Laurens.

In just five years, Habitat for Humanity helped more than 9.5 million people gain improved access to affordable housing through this campaign.

Habitat Greenville helped by working to advance policy and system changes, creating a commitment to advocacy that helped unlock opportunities for safety, stability, and prosperity for individuals in communities across the nation.

Cost of Home accelerated Habitat’s capacity to advocate and united us around a nationwide approach to increasing home affordability.

It’s Dinner!

Decent, affordable shelter provides families with a place to gather and grow. Even more, by working with Habitat to achieve affordable homeownership, families can transform their lives.
Affordable homeownership helps create the conditions that free families from stress and fear, helping build stability and confidence. Studies show that strong and stable households are foundational to child development and growth. When a home fosters — instead of hinders — health and safety, families can flourish. Owning an affordable home also allows homeowners to lift up their entire family by saving for their futures and investing in educational opportunities — bolstering job opportunities and long-term career growth.

Our community needs our help now more than ever. Many families in the Greenville area are facing the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, and we can make a difference together. By donating to Habitat for Humanity, you can support vital repairs and help build affordable homes for those in need.

“Habitat gives people hope to see past the challenges that they face and the barriers that they have to overcome to succeed. They just need somebody to give them that extra helping hand and give them some hope, and say, ‘We’re here to help you along, to get over this hurdle, and you can succeed on your own…’ and I think that’s what Habitat is about.”

If balancing a dinner roll off a hockey stick while serving people meals to support more affordable homeownership is on your wish list this fall, then Habitat for Humanity has an event for you this November.
