Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity is “Back to Building” in Fayetteville with the help of the Fort Bragg Home Builders Institute (HBI) and support provided by The Home Depot Foundation.

Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity (FAHFH) staff, the current students of Fort Bragg’s HBI class and the future Habitat Homeowner came together on May 25 to start construction and raise the walls on the first Habitat home in Fayetteville since June 2022 on Maloney Ave. 

This home was made possible by the partnership with The Home Depot Foundation. The Home Depot Foundation chose to fully fund a Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity home based on the organization’s reputation working with local Veterans and the transitioning Fort Bragg soldiers from the HBI program. 

FAHFH construction crew, alongside the HBI students, will build the Habitat Home for the Johnson family in the next few months. The couple thought at their age, and with being on disability, the idea of being a homeowner didn’t exist for them; the family says this is a great program that allows individuals like them to become homeowners. They currently live in a substandard home with unsafe living conditions that is not equipped for their disabilities.
