Collins Group Realty’s 200th Home Sale Charity Giveaway | $15,000 to Local Nonprofits!
200 home sales. $15,000. Three local nonprofits. One community we’re incredibly grateful to call home.
At Collins Group Realty, serving the Hilton Head Island and Bluffton community goes well beyond real estate. For the eighth year, our 200th Home Sale Charity Giveaway celebrates an important company milestone by giving back to the local organizations that make the Lowcountry such a special place to live.
This year, once our team reached 200 closed home sales, we donated $15,000 to three local nonprofit organizations – with each receiving $5,000.
And the 2026 winners are…
This interactive museum focuses on early childhood development through hands-on, play-based learning for young children and their families. It features engaging exhibits, creative maker spaces, and themed play areas designed to boost social, emotional, and cognitive growth. Additionally, the nonprofit runs educational programs like STEAM activities and offers outreach and scholarships to ensure accessible play for the local community.
Situated on the historic 70-acre Honey Horn property, this museum works to inspire care and appreciation for the Lowcountry’s unique natural and cultural heritage. As a Smithsonian Affiliate, it offers immersive experiences including wildlife habitats, nature trails, heritage gardens, and art galleries. Through guided eco-tours, historical programs, and community events, it educates visitors on local Gullah culture, regional history, and coastal ecology.
This community-focused organization is dedicated to enhancing the overall quality of life and wellness for island residents of all ages. It manages a public facility featuring a pool, gymnasium, fitness center, walking track, and outdoor playgrounds. Beyond facilities, the nonprofit coordinates youth and adult sports leagues, senior programs, fitness classes, and major local events while offering financial assistance to ensure community accessibility.
These organizations contribute so much to the families, children, residents, visitors, environment, and quality of life throughout the Hilton Head Island and Bluffton area. We’re proud to recognize their work and help support their continued impact.
As Chip Collins shares in the video, this tradition is about supporting the community that supports us. Every family that chooses Collins Group Realty to help them buy or sell a home plays a part in helping us reach this milestone, and ultimately makes this annual giveaway possible.
Congratulations to our 2026 winners, and thank you to ALL of the local nonprofit organizations working every day to make the Lowcountry an amazing place to call home.
