A future home for adults with disabilities — built with purpose, dignity, and community in mind.

Dear Sanctuary Family,

We’re approaching an exciting milestone here at The Sanctuary of North Georgia.

Since our first Fundraising Gala last March, when we look around the property today, it’s hard not to pause and thank God for how far He has brought us.

Over the past several weeks, the progress has been incredible. Siding is now going up on both cottages, and for the first time, you can really see these homes beginning to take shape. What was once drawings and prayer is quickly becoming a place where adults with disabilities will live with dignity, independence, and in community.

Inside the Caregivers Cottage / Community Center, HVAC installation is now underway. This building will serve as the heart of the Sanctuary—where caregivers support our residents, where friendships will grow, and where we will gather together for an evening meal. Seeing these systems go in reminds us that the vision is no longer just a plan—it’s becoming a living, breathing place of community.

None of this would be happening without you.

Your generosity, your prayers, and your belief in this mission are what have carried us this far. We are so deeply grateful for those who have already given and continue to support this work—you are the reason this vision is becoming a reality. Because of you, a place is being created where adults with disabilities—who are so often overlooked or forgotten—will have the opportunity to live, work, play, and worship in a safe, affordable, and independent community.

If you feel called to be part of what God is building here, we invite you to join us. Whether through a one-time gift or by becoming a monthly donor, your support helps move this mission forward in a tangible way. You can make a donation today and be part of the impact.

What once felt like a distant dream is now rising from the ground before our eyes. And it is happening because people like you said “yes” to this vision.

Thank you for believing in The Sanctuary of North Georgia.
Thank you for praying.
Thank you for giving.
And thank you for walking with us as we continue building a place where lives will be changed for generations to come.

With so much gratitude and appreciation for your partnership,

Hutch and Cindy Matteson
