Thrivent and Habitat for Humanity of Lincoln Partner for Home Build

Thrivent and Habitat for Humanity of Lincoln (lincolnhabitat.org/faithbuild) are partnering to build a home alongside a local family in need of affordable housing. Thrivent members and others will volunteer to help the future homeowners build their new home. Thrivent has awarded $41,500 to support construction of a new Habitat home and the local faith community is challenged to help raise the remaining funds.

Habitat homeowners come from different backgrounds and have different stories, but they are all similar in their desire for a decent place to live. Habitat Lincoln partners with families in the local community to obtain strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. Through the Thrivent and Habitat partnership, another family will build their home and a foundation for a brighter future.

From the beginning of the Thrivent and Habitat partnership in 2005, Thrivent and its members have now contributed more than $240 million and more than 5.5 million volunteer hours across the U.S. and around the world. This has resulted in thousands of families and individuals obtaining strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter as well as strengthening hundreds of communities. In 2018, Thrivent has committed over $12 million to support the partnership with Habitat. Thousands of Thrivent members and other volunteers will provide their hands and their hearts for construction and non-construction activities.
