Contents: |
The newsletters document information that Habitat for Humanity disseminated to its staff, volunteers, and the general public
from its formative years on into the 21st century. The older portion of these periodicals represent some of the earliest documents
in the Habitat for Humanity records. They provide insight into the development and operation of Koinonia Farm (now Koinonia
Partners) and how Habitat for Humanity grew out of this small, interracial, Christian farming community in Sumter County,
Georgia. The Koinonia newsletters also report on the intimidation and violence directed toward the farm--peaking in the late
1950s--because of its interracial status. Beginning in 1976, the periodicals focus on Habitat for Humanity as an established
organization through publications like Habitat Happenings, Habitattler, Habitat World, and Habichat. New issues of Habitat
World are continually added to the collection as they are published and received. Some of these newsletters share information
about the internal operations of Habitat for an audience of volunteers and staff, while others report on major projects and
events for a general readership.
