Clergy Appreciation Day 2022
Faith leaders support and empower their communities. Habitat Wake’s Faith Partners powerfully support our mission by partnering in builds that bring families home. Together, and across faiths, we are united for a greater purpose, that everyone has a decent place to call home. We are thankful for the many clergy that work passionately alongside us on our build sites, and in advocating for affordable housing for all.
