Women Build 2026
February 25-28, 2026
Please join HFHCC and Coastal Women’s Forum at Women Build, where women from across the area will come together to help build a house and make the dream of homeownership a reality for one local family.
Together, we build better lives and futures. Women Build, February 25-28, 2026!
For this event, our goal is to help raise funds to offset the $150,000 construction cost of the new home Women Build will be working on. We ask individuals to consider donating $20 per shift, and we invite Corporations, Industry Teams, and larger Friend Groups to consider a sponsorship.
Gather friends and family and join us. Whether you’re on the build site, cheering from the sidelines, or helping fund the materials that bring this house a home, there’s a place for you

Home Sweet Home Campaign: Building Hope in Craven County
Habitat for Humanity of Craven County is launching its "Home Sweet Home" fundraising campaign to build the next 2-bedroom Habitat family home. Running from November 2025 through June 2026, this campaign addresses a critical community need: 28% of people in Craven County are cost-burdened, spending more than 30% of their income on housing.
The campaign has structured giving levels that represent different stages of the home-building process:
- Off To A Great Start - $42,000
- Framing It Up - $36,000
- Home Stretch - $29,000
- Windows To Walls - $25,000
- Trimming It Out - $18,000
- Moving In Total - $150,000
Every donation brings a deserving family one step closer to the stability and security of homeownership.
