Affordable Housing with Habitat for Humanity

What a glorious morning it was this past Sunday as Bob announced our final investment in affordable housing during our Welcome Home series.



This week, Bob welcomed Covenant's dear friend, member, and elder, Laura Belcher, CEO of Habitat for Humanity Charlotte. Habitat for Humanity believes that everyone deserves a decent, affordable place to live. They help remove the barriers to homeownership in three ways: building new housing units, repairing homes to a decent standard of living, and financial literacy.



Hugh and Jane McColl, honorary chairs of our capital campaign, presented Laura with $400,000. This significant investment will continue our partnership with Habitat and allow them to purchase 9 acres of land from Greater Bethel ME Church. This land will create 34 new affordable homes in our community.



Each of the significant investments in affordable housing we have announced over the past weeks has been made possible through your extraordinary generosity to the For A Whole Community campaign. Thank you.
