We’re closing out August strong with our fourth home dedication of the month! 🔑

We celebrated Chelsea and her two daughters as they get ready to make their new house a home.

After living with her grandmother for years, Chelsea told us one of the things she’s most excited about is having a space of her own and getting to decorate it exactly how she wants.

We were also glad to have our friends from EOG Resources join us for the celebration. Their team has spent time volunteering with Houston Habitat, including helping us build walls that will become future homes for families like Chelsea’s.

Congratulations, Chelsea! We hope you and your girls have so much fun making this home yours. ✨

The countdown to Building a Dream has officially begun! 🏡✨

Last night, we gathered with friends and supporters of Houston Habitat to kick off our 2026 Building a Dream Luncheon and celebrate what this event is really about: creating more opportunities for Houston families to have a safe, affordable place to call home.

Guests also heard from Houston Habitat homeowner Tierra, who shared what home means to her and her daughter and what she’s looking forward to building for their future.

And there’s so much more to look forward to! On October 13, we’ll welcome Houston native and Grey’s Anatomy star Chandra Wilson as our 2026 Building a Dream Luncheon Honoree for a special fireside chat.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to our Luncheon Chair, Christie Obiaya, for helping us officially get the celebration started.

There's still time to secure your tickets! https://give.houstonhabitat.org/event/building-a-dream-luncheon/e818151

We’ll see you in October! 💙

Building a stronger financial future starts with having the right tools. 💪🏽🏡

Over the weekend, the C.J. Stroud Foundation brought together nearly 50 women for its Power of 7 Workshop, an intimate day created to empower single mothers with practical knowledge around financial literacy, credit and homeownership.

Houston Habitat was proud to be part of the day alongside TDECU, with our Homeowner Services Director, Cassandra Robinson-Bacon, sharing her expertise on building a strong financial foundation and preparing for homeownership.

Thank you to Kim Stroud, President of the C.J. Stroud Foundation, for inviting us to be part of such a meaningful event and for creating space for women to learn, connect and plan for their futures. 💙
