Celebrating World Habitat Day
Over 35 years ago, the first Monday in October was designated by the United Nations as World Habitat Day and began with the theme "Shelter is my right."

During World Habitat Day, Habitat for Humanity draws attention to the important role decent housing
plays in eliminating barriers to a better, healthier, more financially stable life.
 
Everyone deserves to build the foundation for a stable, healthy future for themselves and their families —
no matter who they are, where they live or how much money they earn.

This year, we encourage you to celebrate World Habitat Day everyday by protecting your own shelter and loved ones. With FreeWill's secure online resource, creating or updating your estate plan is simple and free, ensuring your wishes are communicated so you can protect your loved ones and build generational wealth. Together, let's support a brighter future will all families in our community.
Carter Work Project
Our Chief Executive Officer, Tim Veeck, participated in the Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project on Monday, October 2 in Charlotte. This event draws national attention to the cuase of affordable homeownership.

Tim shared, “Amidst the backdrop of a local and national housing affordability crisis, the Carter Work Project provides the opportunity to demonstrate that another way is possible in relation to the creation of affordable homeownership.

Historically, the York County affiliate started 6 months after the last Carter Work Project came to Charlotte in 1987, so we recognize the significant ripple effects that occur regionally from this event and that’s why I’m participating in the 2023 Carter Work Project. We once again need the exposure this will bring locally and regionally so we can see ripples of change in York County that advance access to affordable homeownership and the opportunity for all communities to thrive.”
