HopeBuilders

“I donate to Knoxville Habitat because the program provides a solid, sustaining method for homeownership for so many people. Most of the people that benefit from Habitat would never have an opportunity to advance in society because of historical or current situations with their lives. The program is designed to grow with a clear vision of helping the community.”

– Justin

“My husband and I give monthly because we believe in what Knoxville Habitat is doing. They don’t just give someone a home, they equip them with the tools, skills, and education they need to keep a home. Habitat is changing lives in Knoxville and we are so happy to be a small part of that.”

– Betsy and Chris

“I give monthly to honor our family legacy and to give back to the community. We have been blessed, and we wanted to pay it forward.”

– Barbara

“We support Knoxville Habitat for Humanity’s monthly giving program because it offers a hand up — not a handout — and helps provide safe, secure housing for families in our community. Over the past two decades, we’ve seen firsthand the success of families who have partnered with Habitat. Monthly giving is a meaningful way to ensure that more families have the opportunity to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through homeownership.”

– Gary and Yolanda

“I donate to Knoxville Habitat for Humanity monthly because it offers people a chance to own their own home, build up equity and hopefully change the trajectory of their family’s future. I feel it is much better to own a home than to continually spend precious resources on rent. My donations aren’t big, but every little bit helps.”

– George

“There really is no place like home, and Habitat helps make that a reality for so many right here in Knoxville. I give to Habitat because they believe in breaking the cycle of poverty and building up and into our community!”

– Jessica

“As a family man, making local impact is important to me,because my family lives here.. my grandkids live here. Habitat is a building block for Knoxville families who just need to be given an opportunity… and I get to help my neighbors.”

– Doug

“HopeBuilders regular giving is a tangible way for me to ‘love my neighbor as myself’. Families who can’t ever invest in a home because they can’t come up with the down payment for a home or have the financial means to build credit to qualify for a loan are at a serious disadvantage to ever establish financial security and independence. HopeBuilders provides a way to invest with others to help families have the opportunity to get over those barriers. Habitat for Humanity supports families to get into affordable housing and to build the skills necessary to maintain their home. The automatic payments that I have set up through HopeBuilders makes giving effortless for me and also allows me to plan for incremental increases over time as I am able to do that. And the best part is that I know that I am investing in the futures of the parents who are able to buy their home and in their children’s futures as well.”
