DESCRIPTION

This modest, durable, and noble clinic was designed to reflect the community’s faith in their future. When this project began, the unemployment rate in Hampton County was 14.8%. In the face of such an economic headwind, the citizens passed a bond referendum to collect funds for twelve community projects – including a library, a senior center, community halls, and recreational facilities – to demonstrate their commitment both to quality of life and to economic growth. This health clinic was a priority among the twelve, the first to be built, and is a source of optimism in this rural community.
