Want to join forces with your brothers and sisters to help change lives through affordable housing? Local faith communities can partner through donations and volunteer service. To make this project possible we need a total commitment of 500 volunteers and $100,000.
Future homeowners Devine and Bianca have been displaced from Hurricane Florence for almost three years. After the storm, their apartment was damaged beyond repair. Living quarters are tight, with Devine and Bianca sharing a room with their two youngest children while their oldest shares a room with other family members. They are grateful for a roof over their heads, but they long for something strong and stable they can call their own.
Devine works as a cable and internet company technician to support the family, and Bianca is a stay-at-home mom with their three boys. Both Devine and Bianca grew up renting apartments and constantly moving every six to twelve months; nothing was permanent. They are ready for stability, not only for themselves but for their sons. Devine and Bianca want their sons to have rooms of their own where they can make memories.
A stable home will open the door to a brighter future for this family. Stable homes give freedom to invest in the future. Stable homes provide room to play and grow. Stable homes build confidence. When partnering with Habitat, you make the dream of a stable home a reality.
After the fundraising period and reaching our goal, we will host a special kickoff event with representatives of the different faiths taking part in blessing the land before we officially begin construction. Then, together, we will raise the walls of the homes.
We will invite all of our supporting #BUILDforUNITY faith partners to take part in building the homes alongside our partner families. Volunteer opportunities will be available Tuesday-Saturdays for the 4-6 months of construction on the homes.
Upon completion of the homes, join us for a very special unique faith-based dedication ceremony where we bring all of our faith partners together to celebrate the handing of the keys to the partner families.
