Home Sweet Home Project
Habitat for Humanity Central Arizona Home Sponsorship
DC Ranch is providing the opportunity for residents to donate and sponsor a Habitat for Humanity Home through the Home Sweet Home Project. The project launched in January with a kick-off at DC Ranch Day. This initiative offers a fundraising component as well as hands-on experience, where residents can join the future homeowner in building the house, participate in a wall-signing and dedication ceremony and enjoy recognition through social media and other platforms. It’s an opportunity to make a tangible impact, not only for the family but for the DC Ranch community as well.
Project timeline
Residents will fundraise throughout the spring, with the goal of reaching the required sponsorship amount of $120,000 by May. Once the funds are secured, Habitat will select a family during the summer, and construction will begin in the fall when Arizona’s temperatures just start to drop.
