Ryzon Refuge is a new faith-based nonprofit serving Horry County. At Ryzon Refuge, we work collectively with the community to support the needs of mothers and their children experiencing homelessness in our community. We are currently in Phase 1, which is to build 7 tiny homes made of refurbished modern shipping containers, along with a small community center to be used for education, fellowship, and more. Our goal is to have a total of 21 tiny homes within the same community.

All proceeds will directly benefit the community through Ryzon Refuge!

About Myrtle Beach

Learn more about the host city, Myrtle Beach.

Myrtle Beach is a major tourist destination and the central focus of the Grand Strand coast of South Carolina. It is widely known for its wide beaches, numerous golf courses, seafood restaurants, and outlet-style shopping, as well as one of the highest concentrations of miniature golf courses you'll find anywhere. A popular spring break destination, Myrtle Beach is heavily developed and crowded, in contrast to other Southern beaches, such as the Outer Banks in North Carolina, and attracts a lot of tourists from other Southern states or "Snowbirds" from the North, who may own a condominium or timeshare along the coast.
