San Marcos Area Habitat for Humanity
San Marcos Area Habitat for Humanity was formerly a separate affiliate of Habitat for Humanity operating in San Marcos and surrounding areas. However, in 2018, it merged with Austin Habitat for Humanity, expanding Austin's service area to include San Marcos and Hays County[4].
History and Mission
The organization was dedicated to providing affordable housing to low-income families. Like other Habitat affiliates, it relied on volunteer labor and donations to build homes. The primary mission aligns with Habitat's global vision: to ensure everyone has a decent place to live.
Programs and Activities
San Marcos Area Habitat for Humanity, before its merger, likely operated using similar models as other Habitat affiliates. This would include:
-
Homeownership Program: Families in need applied for homeownership based on their level of need, willingness to partner with Habitat, and ability to repay a mortgage. Homebuyers contributed sweat equity by working on their own homes and others, essentially investing in their community[1].
-
ReStore Operations: ReStores are nonprofit home improvement stores selling donated materials and furniture at reduced prices. Proceeds from these sales typically support local Habitat projects[1].
-
Community Engagement: Engaging local volunteers and businesses to contribute time and resources to support housing projects.
After the merger with Austin Habitat for Humanity, these activities are now part of the broader Austin affiliate's operations.
Legacy and Impact
The merger with Austin Habitat expanded resources and opportunities for both organizations. Today, residents of San Marcos and surrounding areas continue to benefit from the efforts of Austin Habitat for Humanity, with programs tailored to local needs and community engagement remaining a core component of their operations[4].

Only 30 days remain until Austin makes history! The 2025 Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project will bring thousands of volunteers together to create a lasting legacy of hope, strength, and community. We are beyond excited to welcome the world to Austin to honor President and Mrs. Carter and to stand with Central Texas families for generations to come. (fb)
