This nonprofit is featured in the WALTER Guide to Giving 2026, a curated guide to Raleigh and Wake County organizations that depend on holiday-season support.

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity Greater Raleigh brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope. One in four families in the community lacks access to affordable housing. Habitat Greater Raleigh offers homeownership opportunities for homebuyers making less than 80% of the Area Median Income and preserves existing homes. Since 1985, Habitat Greater Raleigh has built 1,000 safe, affordable, energy-efficient homes in all parts of Wake, Johnston, and Franklin Counties.
There are many ways to get involved with Habitat for Humanity Greater Raleigh’s work, including:
- Volunteer: Volunteers in construction or the ReStore make Habitat’s mission possible! No experience required.
- Advocate: Advocacy Ambassadors engage policymakers and campaign for safe, affordable housing in the community.
- ReStore: Donations of gently used goods or purchases at one of Habitat’s 10 ReStores to support its mission—and shoppers get great deals!
- Donate: Financial contributions help Habitat empower local families to purchase an affordable home. Every gift makes a difference!
