Fundraising
Habitat is always in need of people who are interested in fundraising. It can be as simple as collecting aluminum cans, or as involved as organizing a silent auction or gala. If you're interested in organizing a big event, please contact Habitat's Development Office at (828) 328-4663 x309.
Below are some ideas to get you started.
- Sell 'shares' of a house--a 2x4 for $5, a box of nails for $15, etc.
- Host a spaghetti dinner or pancake supper.
- Organize a change drive at a local school or church.
- Build a playhouse or shed and auction it off.
- Have local artists build/decorate birdhouses to sell at a silent auction.
- Have your business sponsor a house.
