This promotion is an open invitation for all We R Foco businesses to take their own creative spin on fundraising for the month. Our hope is that all We R Foco businesses are able to join together to help raise funds for May’s nonprofit, Habitat for Humanity. If we all pitch in to help together, we can make a much larger impact! We will be promoting each participating business throughout the month in addition to our own fundraiser on We R Foco’s Facebook page. We encourage you to join us!
Info about Fort Collins Habitat for Humanity
Our mission is to build safe, decent, and affordable homes in partnership with hard-working families in need. This grassroots effort is made possible through the generous donations of materials, money, and labor from members of the Fort Collins community.
Habitat provides a 0% interest loan where Habitat homeowners make a monthly mortgage payment that does not exceed 30% of their income. Habitat homeowners also save a down payment and contribute up to 500 hours of “sweat equity” in the building of their home and at the ReStore.
What is Women Build?
Though our neighborhoods are comprised largely of women and children, they are also the population most likely to be affected by poor living conditions. Our Women Build events provide the opportunity for women as well as the community to take a proactive step in serving their communities through volunteering as well as donating to our projects.
Women Build homes in Fort Collins are primarily funded and built by female volunteers. We are accepting donations for our Women Build homes, we have a goal of $100,000 each year!
Are you interested in volunteering? No experience is necessary. Volunteers work under the guidance of construction professionals, and also alongside other volunteers and future Habitat homeowners. Whether you are learning new skills or simply adding a few to your tool belt, this is a rewarding experience for all involved, and improves the community that you share.
