HOUSING PROVIDED. Come spend some time in beautiful Chatham County, North Carolina! Wander our miles of hiking trails, relax at Jordan Lake or take part in one of our quirky town events. Pittsboro has a diverse and accomplished artistic community, so there are plenty of small shops and independent galleries to explore- and the locals are the nicest folks you’ll ever meet! We’re a string of sleepy farm towns that have seen massive growth in the recent years, now we need your help to build stable, affordable homes for the people who have lived and worked here for generations. We will provide lunches on workdays and a big banquet-style dinner at the end of the week, but groups are responsible for other meals. Housing is provided by Tyson’s Creek Baptist Church, with separate spaces available for males/females. For more information head to https://www.chathamhabitat.org/collegiate-challenge

A new report, Climate Action through Housing and Informal Settlements, released today by Habitat, finds in addition to the lack of commitment to housing, only 11 NDCs reviewed mention informal settlements or slums as a national issue, despite these areas being home to more than 1 billion people.

Investing in programs: Philanthropic partnerships
The Build Beyond initiative invites visionary philanthropists to become long-term partners in change, moving beyond one-off project funding to invest in multi-year program or country-level impact. Every dollar is multiplied fourfold through corporate co-funding, dramatically expanding scale and sustainability.
