More Than Construction: How Community Keeps Us Building

June is celebrated as National Homeownership Month, but for us, it turned into something even bigger, a month of connection. From staffing the beer gardens at the Yuba-Sutter Fair, to hosting a BBQ at Purpose Place, from manning the concessions at Beale Air Force Base to sharing our services at the Senior Resource Expo, we didn't just talk about our mission. We lived it. Out in the community face to face. As you scroll through this month's newsletter, you'll see more about each of these moments. We're proud to share them with you, because you're a part of this too. Thank you for building with us.

Support the Mission of Affordable Housing

Every day, families and individuals in our community face unstable housing or homelessness. Your support helps make a real difference.

When you give to Habitat for Humanity Yuba/Sutter, you help provide safe, stable housing opportunities for people in need. Your donation supports critical programs that connect individuals facing homelessness with affordable housing, and families working toward the dream of homeownership.

Every contribution builds more than homes. It builds hope, stability, and second chances for those who need them most.

Cheers to Community: Habitat Serves Up Support at the Yuba-Sutter Fair

Last week, our Habitat team had the joy of spending four lively days at the Yuba-Sutter Fair, where we staffed the Beer Gardens as a fundraising partner. Alongside our friends from the Linda Lions Club, we poured cold drinks, shared warm smiles, and helped raise funds to support affordable housing in our community.

The fair was more than just a chance to enjoy great weather, reconnect with neighbors, and cheer on local entertainment. For us, it was a reminder of what happens when community comes together with a common purpose. Every shift served and every drink poured supported our mission to provide safe, stable, and affordable housing for families right here in the Yuba-Sutter area.

We’re especially grateful to our longtime volunteers Tom and Diane, who traveled all the way from the East Coast to help out, and to everyone who took a moment to stop by and say hello. And of course, a big thank-you to the Linda Lions for their partnership and positivity throughout the weekend.

Now that the fairgrounds have cleared and the tents are packed away, we’re back at the office, ready to put those funds to work. Because of your support, we can continue building homes, hope, and a stronger future for our neighbors.

Fueling the Mission: Habitat Volunteers at the Beale Air & Space Expo

Earlier this month, our Habitat for Humanity Yuba-Sutter team had the incredible opportunity to run concessions at the Beale Air & Space Expo, an exciting event that brought together military families and community members from across the region.

With planes soaring overhead and crowds filling the tarmac, our volunteers stayed busy behind the scenes, keeping guests fueled with snacks, drinks, and plenty of good cheer. The event not only gave us a front-row seat to the amazing airshows, but also allowed us to raise important funds to support our work building and repairing affordable housing in Yuba and Sutter counties.

We’re so proud of our hardworking team and deeply grateful to all the volunteers who stepped up to help. Events like this are only possible because of your time, energy, and heart, and we couldn't do it without you.

Senior Resource Fair in Orland, CA

We had a wonderful time connecting with the community at the Glenn County Senior Resource Expo! Hosted in the heart of Orland, this event brought together a wide range of local organizations and service providers, all focused on supporting seniors and their families.

Our team was proud to share information about Habitat for Humanity’s affordable housing programs, home repairs, and opportunities for community involvement. It was a great chance to meet new faces, answer important questions, and hear firsthand what housing challenges folks are facing in the area.

Thank you to the event organizers for creating such a welcoming and well-organized space, we’re already looking forward to next year!

Community BBQ at Purpose Place

A community BBQ was recently held for the residents of Purpose Place in Orland, one of our permanent supportive housing communities.

The gathering offered residents a chance to enjoy a warm meal, connect with neighbors, and spend time together in a relaxed, welcoming setting.

Purpose Place provides stable, long-term housing for individuals and families in need, and moments like these help build the sense of community that makes it truly feel like home.
