More Opportunites to Make an Impact
Lemonade for Homes
Lemonade for Homes is your chance to make a powerful impact in your community, starting right in your own neighborhood!
This summer, we’re here to ensure you have an unforgettable experience, and our comprehensive packet makes planning your lemonade stand straightforward and enjoyable. Inside, you’ll find all the tools you need to set up a thriving lemonade stand right in your front yard.
What sets this project apart is its ability to change lives. A simple lemonade stand has the potential to provide a new home for families in need.
Every dollar you earn will go directly toward purchasing the materials required to build these families' homes. Join us in making a significant difference, one cup of lemonade at a time!
Seeds of Hope
Seeds of Hope is a community seed drive focused on planting the promise of growth, nourishment, and opportunity. Through the collection and distribution of garden seeds, Seeds of Hope helps empower individuals and families to grow their own fresh food and build long-term food security.
Each donated seed represents more than a future harvest—it represents hope, stability, and new beginnings. Seed packets will be given to homeowners during their home closing as a symbol of growth and a fresh start.
To learn more and get involved, click the button below to check out the Seeds of Hope packet, where you’ll find more information and flyers you can use to help spread the word and grow the impact.
Building With Blessings
We will deliver construction materials directly to your congregation, giving members the opportunity to write well wishes and blessings on the wood. These messages will become part of the home itself—surrounding a Habitat family with love, encouragement, and prayers as they move into their new home.
This meaningful activity ties directly into our mission of bringing people together to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. Building with Blessings also creates an inclusive way for individuals who may find it difficult to come out to the construction site to still be part of the building process—allowing everyone to make a lasting impact without lifting a hammer.
