99.9 KONY Country is the home of the KONY Country Morning Show with Marty and Amy each weekday morning from 6am – 10am.
Kony is going over the Edge for Habitat for Humanity because we want to make a difference in our community! We know owning a home can change someone’s life, and we are excited to be able to help in such a fun way.
We are raising $1000 from the community and 100% of that money is staying here to help Habitat build homes for families.
Did you know that $50 buys nails to build a house? $100 buys a Front door to a families new home. Your donation helps us get one step closer to a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
Help send us over the Edge!

About Habitat for HUmanity - Southwest Utah
Habitat for Humanity of Southwest Utah is a non profit building and repairing homes in Southern Utah.
We are committed to providing safe, decent, affordable housing for qualified low-income families who would otherwise not be able to buy a home. Working with volunteers, families, corporations, congregations, and donors we are working to create a world where everyone has a decent place to live – starting right here in Washington County, Utah.
The History of Habitat for Humanity of Southwest Utah
HFHSWU was established in May 1998, for the purpose of building houses in partnership with low-income families in need of safe, decent, affordable housing. Our affiliate has completed 22 homes providing affordable housing for 125 individuals. We are currently working on our 23rd build here in Washington County, for the Havens Family!
Habitat for Humanity in essence:
- Established May 1998
- Serves Washington County
- To date, built 22 homes in Washington County and tithed our earnings for construction of another 22 overseas.
- Utilizes dozens of volunteers who contribute hundreds of hours for the construction of each house
- Keeps building costs at a minimum from donations of funds and materials
- Partners with low-income families
- Offers a “Hand-up … Not a Handout”
- Partners with families willing to provide up to 500 hours of “sweat equity hours,” make a down payment, and commit to keeping monthly mortgage payments current
- Sells completed houses at no profit and 0% interest
- Channels mortgage payments into the Fund for Humanity, a revolving construction account used to build more houses
Global Work
