One for all.
Funding
Initiatives
The goal of Under One Roof is to manage donations and allocate funds to local non-profits, ensuring immediate, effective support for those facing housing insecurity. Through results-driven residential work programs, mentorship, job placement, and comprehensive supportive services, these organizations equip our most vulnerable neighbors with the tools they need to rebuild their lives.
Through the generosity of early supporters, Under One Roof has already made significant strides by partnering with organizations including Golden Isles Veterans Village, having completed the build-out of 29 new homes and a community center, and Saved By Grace, as they continue to plan the expansion of their highly successful residential work program.
Additionally, Under One Roof is working on site acquisition and development plan for City of Refuge: Golden Isles, a residential work program for 60 single women and their children.
Saved By Grace
Saved By Grace (SBG) has established a remarkable track record of helping those in our community who
are experiencing the unique hardship of housing insecurity. Through its accountability-driven residential work program, participants achieve stable, permanent housing, demonstrating the program’s effectiveness in transforming lives and fostering lasting stability.
To date, over 100 individuals have successfully graduated from the Saved by Grace program,
a testament to its profound impact. To become a resident of Saved by Grace, participants must pass background checks, maintain consistent employment, take part in regular supportive services
and screenings, and abide by a curfew until graduating.

This marks the beginning of a promising new chapter for George, and his success exemplifies the kind of meaningful support that can help prevent chronic homelessness.

Brent
Brent’s journey began in January 2022 when he joined the program, determined to rebuild his life. Within a week, he successfully reclaimed his car and secured employment at Worthy Pools & Spas, Inc. Brent quickly addressed overdue child support payments, often exceeding the required amounts. His dedication and drive led to his appointment as House Manager for Saved by Grace in December 2022, a role he held until his recent move to independent living.
Approximately nine months ago, Brent joined Sea Island as a maintenance technician. His exemplary performance earned him the Enriching Lives award and the Employee of the Month accolade. Brent’s accomplishments reflect his resilience and the profound impact of the Saved by Grace program.
Everyone deserves a place to call home.
Thanks to support from Under One Roof, Saved by Grace has secured a new permanent home for its supportive services center with funding in place to renovate this facility for long-term supportive services, which will include workforce training, financial education, and more. In full compliance with zoning—participants will continue to reside off-site.
Community support remains vital to scaling this impact—ensuring more men gain the tools they need to build stable, independent lives.
City of Refuge: Golden Isles
Under One Roof is launching a new initiative to provide safe, transitional housing and support services for women with children facing housing insecurity in Glynn County.
Operated by City of Refuge, a faith-based organization with a proven model of success, this facility will pair transitional housing with childcare, workforce training, financial coaching, and other wraparound services that lead to long-term stability.
But before the doors can open, we need your support. Together, we can create a community of up to 60 housing units and a support center that will provide career counseling and workforce training, financial education, quality-rated childcare, healthy food, transportation, and healthcare.
Golden Isles
Veterans Village
After serving their country, too many veterans return home without a clear path forward. In Georgia alone, more than 700 veterans experience homelessness on any given night.
Under One Roof and Golden Isles Veterans Village are addressing this need with a transitional community specifically designed for veterans. The village consists of 29 tiny homes and a community center—offering not just a place to live, but a place to heal, connect, and rebuild.
The program provides access to physical and mental health services, job training, education, and mentorship—helping veterans reintegrate into civilian life with dignity and direction.
