Last week, staff from Habitat Greater Raleigh joined affiliates from around the world for Habitat for Humanity’s Affiliate Conference! As the organization celebrates its 50th anniversary, we’re proud to be part of a movement working to expand access to safe, affordable housing.

Throughout the week, our team connected with fellow affiliates, exchanged ideas and explored innovative approaches to addressing housing challenges. The conference showcased the many ways Habitat affiliates are finding new paths to make a lasting impact. Our staff also had the opportunity to lead two tabletop discussions, sharing insights and ideas with fellow professionals from across the network.

This work is only possible because of the dedicated supporters, volunteers, donors, partners and community members who stand alongside us. Thank you for helping us build homes, communities and hope! 🏠
