Springtime brings about new growth and opportunity. Join us in supporting the mission that everyone deserves a safe and affordable place to live. This time of year, we present our annual fundraising gala, the Blue Jean Bash, and great volunteer opportunities like our annual CEO Build and Springtime Rock The Block community service event.
What a great night! Friends, new and old, met to give from their hearts to a cause so near and dear to those hearts – affordable home ownership! Springtime is a period of renewal and growth, and Habitat Charlotte Region could not be more thankful for the bounty received from our generous supporters at this year’s Blue Jean Bash. And the denim was out…
At a time when a home has never been more critical, Habitat Charlotte Region’s annual CEO Build continues to champion affordable workforce housing and improve the health of our businesses and our community. Our inaugural CEO Build was a smashing success, with more than 30 CEOs from the Charlotte Region joining us to work at the Meadows at Plato Price development. There was plenty of measuring and hammering for all, not to mention some great discussion around the subject we all care so much about – safe and affordable home ownership.
Building homes, communities, and hope are about much more than raising walls and hammering nails (although it involves much of that, too). To truly make a lasting, sustainable impact, we must invest more in the communities we serve and which future Habitat homeowners will call home.
Twice each year, Habitat Charlotte Region staff, volunteers, partners, and homeowners-in-process come together for Rock the Block. During this community cleanup event, volunteers go house to house, helping current residents of a neighborhood to complete a variety of projects. Volunteers clean gutters, paint, rake leaves, mow lawns, haul away trash and unwanted items to be donated to our ReStores, and more.
If you or your organization are interested in participating in a Rock the Block event, please contact Volunteer Services at 704.716.7040 ext 2230 or volunteer@habitatCLTregion.org.
