Your year-end gift helps families like Jackie, Shamika, and Nia achieve the dream of homeownership.

Hear Habitat CEO Penny's message about the importance of Giving Local.

On Wednesday, December 10, 2025, our community came together to celebrate a milestone—the completion of two new affordable homes for local families.

The event featured inspiring remarks from community leaders, including Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings, and highlighted the power of partnership in creating opportunities for those in need.

From all of us at Habitat—from the Board and staff to the hardworking homeowner families we serve—thank you for supporting stronger communities. Your generosity and partnership have helped build not just homes, but hope and opportunity.

As we close out 2025, we celebrate the progress we’ve made together and look forward to creating even more safe, affordable housing in the year ahead. We wish you and your loved ones peace, joy, and a bright start to 2026!
