We can’t believe it’s already been a week since we wrapped this year's Home Builders Blitz! From May 8–16, Habitat Wake partnered with local for-profit builders to take five homes from frame to finish—all in just seven days.
Blitz Week
Working in teams of two, ten local builders from across Wake and Johnston Counties worked tirelessly to complete homes for five local families. Each day marked a new milestone, from raising walls on day one, to midweek drywall and painting and finally ending the week with beautiful landscaping. Our builders even added special touches for the soon-to-be homeowners, including rocking chairs, flags, welcome mats and gift baskets.
Home Builders Blitz Dedication Ceremony
To close out the Blitz, we held a Dedication Ceremony to celebrate the hard work of our new homeowners, builders and supporters. Builders and homeowners exchanged gifts and words of gratitude before families were officially welcomes home with the presentation of their keys. With the event concluded, five families are now able to move into their new homes and begin the next chapter of their lives.
Special Thanks
We are always humbled by the community it takes to build Habitat homes, and never more so than during Blitz week: from the subcontractors and vendors who donated their time and made space in their schedules, to the hospitality sponsors who kept everyone fed, to the builders who spent months preparing for this week. We're so thankful for all of you!
