We can do more together
Habitat for Humanity and Thrivent are partnering to help make affordable housing a reality for Brevard County through the collaborative Faith Builds program. It’s a partnership powered by faith and a passion to build stronger families, churches and communities.
Habitat for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity is a Christian nonprofit housing organization with a mission to put God’s love into action by bringing people together to help build strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter.
Thrivent
Thrivent is a membership organization that guides Christians on their Wise With Money Journey, so they can live more content, confident and generous lives. For more than 100 years, Thrivent has helped Christians make wise money choices that reflect their values and offer opportunities to be generous where they live, work and worship.
Since 2005, thousands of home builds and repair projects have been completed by Thrivent members and other generous Habitat for Humanity volunteers. Now, entire churches can help local families in need of decent, affordable housing by joining a Faith Build.
As members of faith based organizations, we are called to build community inside and outside of the church. Faith Builds are a meaningful—and fun—way to answer this call!
