Imagine the year 1905. That was the year the Epps-McGill Farmhouse was built in Kingstree, South Carolina. For 120 years, it has stood as a silent witness to countless lives, changing seasons, and American history.
Now, as we celebrate this remarkable 120th anniversary, the burden of time is weighing on the structure. We are currently finishing up $200k roof restoration work and need your help to keep the momentum going.
We are launching the “120 Years of History Waiting to Be Told” campaign to raise the critical funds needed for foundation repair and stabilization. Your donation is an investment in preserving a landmark that has shaped our community for over a century.
This 120th anniversary is more than a celebration—it’s a critical turning point. Help us ensure this farmhouse doesn’t become a forgotten story. We need your help to write the next 120 years.
Your generous gift will fund the complete structural and aesthetic restoration of this landmark. Specifically, your support ensures:
- Foundation Stabilization: Securing the base to stop further movement and ensure the house can stand strong for the next 120 years.
- Interior Restoration: Carefully repairing crumbling plaster walls and refinishing original woodwork to bring the historic interiors back to their original splendor, ready to host future generations.
- Exterior Renewal: Expertly repairing exterior woodwork and finishes and applying a comprehensive coat of paint to protect the building from the elements.
- Essential Upgrades: Installing a critically needed, fully rewired electrical system to modernize the structure safely while protecting the historic fabric.
By donating today, you are not just funding repairs—you are investing in the foundation, the walls, and the lifeblood of 120 years of history so that the Epps-McGill Farmhouse’s story can continue to be told.
Our donation amounts focus on the number 120 commemorating this important anniversary. You are welcome to give any amount you like. No amount is too little or too large.
We thank you for any level of support. Every plank, every windowpane holds a story. Your gift ensures those stories are preserved, not lost to time.
Don’t let the legacy fade. Celebrate 120 years by donating today!
