Help make Alamance County a place where everyone has a decent place to live by sponsoring a house! Businesses large and small, faith communities of all kinds, and various coalitions of like-minded folks come together to fund and build Habitat homes and communities as House Sponsors. We are also honored to have the support of individuals and families who sponsor a house in memory or in honor of a loved one, as well as foundations that understand just how capital-intensive our work is. Full sponsorship of a house is $100,000 but partial sponsorships are also available; the breakdown is listed below. Email Sarah at swilliams@habitatalamance.org for more details.
Habitat is honored to have strong and loyal business partners, and we’re always looking for new businesses who wish to join us as we work to create a community where everyone has a decent, affordable place to live.
Businesses that sponsor houses afford their employees the chance to work together on the build site and connect with Habitat’s mission in a personal and meaningful way. Businesses benefit by receiving social media recognition among other benefits and employees are proud to work for a company that supports the local community.
Since 1988, we have welcomed people of all faiths, ethnicities, creeds and backgrounds to our organization and communities. Faith communities played an integral role in our founding and their support is crucial to the success of our ministry. Together we recognize and share in the call to create a world where everyone has a decent place to live, and together we put faith in action by building houses, communities, and hope.
The Alamance County faith community has come together several times to sponsor a Unity Build. Churches from all denominations served together across race, denomination, and theological difference to sponsor a house. In 2022, we brought it back after the pandemic and it is now an annual build bringing churches together in unity through service each July.
Beyond that official build, Church groups are always welcome for a day of volunteering with Habitat or providing a meal for a visiting group. It can help members of the faith community put their faith into action and is so helpful for us!
Community groups, organizations, individuals, families, and foundations also sponsor Habitat houses. Some sponsorships are in memory or honor of a loved one, and others wish to sponsor a house but remain anonymous. Whatever your motivation or desire, Habitat will ensure a meaningful partnership for you, your family or your organization/group.
