Habitat’s Home Builders Blitz is a partnership between Habitat affiliates and the building community to build and renovate homes across the United States. Builders and Habitat affiliates work closely to organize all aspects of building, including securing subcontractors and suppliers, fundraising and seeking donations of materials.

The Builders Blitz builds began in 2002 in Wake Forest, NC and since then the program has enjoyed great success, resulting in more than 1,000 safe, affordable homes across the country.
