Habitat for Humanity of Wake County

Urgent Action Alert: Protect AmeriCorps!

Urgent Action Alert: Protect AmeriCorps! Call your Congressional offices today and urge them to support continued funding and staffing for the AmeriCorps program. AmeriCorps has placed a majority of its employees on administrative leave, and is planning to terminate these employees after April 30. Habitat is concerned that a significant permanent reduction in staff could impact the administration of those programs. Habitat Wake’s AmeriCorps alumni have contributed over 250,000 hours of service to our mission of ensuring everyone has an affordable home. Find a call script and contact information for your Members of Congress.

Guardian Roofing Steps In for Raleigh Caregiver
Anthony Woods had been in need of a new roof for several years.

“My roof was deteriorating,” he said. “I had several roofers come out for estimates, and I was just praying somebody would give me a break, but the price was too much for me. It got to the point where I was thinking about looking up YouTube tutorials and trying to do something on my own, because you could see light coming in through the roof. And then I got that phone call from Habitat … it was like a blessing straight out of the sky.”

Kandy's Story
“My apartment had gotten too small for us,” Kandy said. “So I was like, well, what could be next? I’m a kitchen supervisor at a restaurant, and things were going good. I felt like I was ready to buy something. I was just in the right spot.”

Kandy and her children were ready for a change. Imagine trying to squeeze four kids (including a set of energetic twin boys) into a small apartment. Space was tight, and it was time to dream bigger.

Habitat Cambodia
Last month, Habitat Wake had the joy of hosting a very special guest — Vandy Phal, National Director of Habitat for Humanity Cambodia.

Each year, a portion of Habitat Wake’s revenue is tithed to support global partners working to create safe, affordable housing in communities around the world. We are proud to partner with Habitat organizations in Cambodia, Honduras, and Malawi. Each group works in their unique contexts but is united by Habitat's shared vision: everyone deserves a decent place to live.

Let the Local "Yes, in God's Back Yard" Movement Begin!
April 24, 2025, may very well be the day the Yes in God’s Back Yard movement took hold in our community. After years of discernment and planning, Greenwood Forest Baptist Church received official approval from the Cary Town Council to rezone their underutilized property for their pioneering Carr Center project, making way for 62 units of affordable housing on their campus.
