Finding a home, whether it?s a first home or a dream home, is an important and exciting time in someone?s life. Unfortunately, many will never experience the feeling of security associated with having a place to call their own. That reality, and the belief that every man, woman and child should have decent, safe and affordable housing, led to the founding of Habitat for Humanity in 1976. In the 36 years since, Habitat has built more than 500,000 homes sheltering 2.5 million people worldwide.
Realtor.com shares Habitat?s mission of bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope, and believes that home ownership is central to building strong, vibrant communities. For these reasons, I am thrilled to announce Realtor.com?s Building Hope Challenge, our new initiative benefiting Habitat for Humanity?s BUiLD movement. BUiLD aims to create a world where everyone has a decent place to live, and in support of this, Realtor.com will donate $50,000 to Habitat for Humanity, a portion of which will assist in revitalizing a local neighborhood in need.
You can show your support by joining the Challenge and helping to make a difference. Visit Realtor.com/challenge and vote for the state where you would like Realtor.com to focus our donation. Your votes will help decide which state wins, and every time you vote through December 2nd, you?ll be entered in a weekly drawing to win a $250 gift card*. You can help spread the word by inviting friends and family to join the Challenge via email and social media.
Join us in supporting Habitat for Humanity. Lend your voice and your vote and make a difference in your community!
