Ways to give

Thank you so much for your support in our mission to eliminate substandard housing in Merced and Stanislaus Counties. Your donation will give a local family a hand up not a hand out. You help them achieve their dream of homeownership and provide them with a simple, decent, affordable home.

Adopt-A-Day

Adopt-A-Day is a corporate build program. It matches our community’s high demand for group volunteer activities with the growing need for affordable housing. It’s a great opportunity to create or celebrate milestones, and for employees to engage with their community while strengthening team skills.

A tax-deductible sponsor contribution of $1,500 helps to cover the cost of materials and volunteer support for the day. The Sponsorship includes:

  • 10-15 of your employees to work on the build site

  • Supplies for the day

  • Group T-shirts

  • Lunch, Snacks and drinks
