A family reunites to build with others
Like so many these days, the Stoesz family is spread far and wide. However, they often reunite to build a Habitat home and help create a special place where another family can be together.

Thank you to the generous sponsors of the 2017 Carter Work Project.
Habitat has worked with communities in Quang Nam province for over 15 years, and it’s home to marginalized groups with great needs. This project will focus on building and showing examples of good, affordable latrines to help alleviate the sanitation issues these households face.
President and Mrs. Carter, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Eric Paslay and more than 900 homeowners and volunteers share their excitement for this week’s event.
Among the Carter Work Project 2024 volunteers were current Twin Cities Habitat homeowners, who understand firsthand the challenges of unstable housing. This year, they’re excited to continue to give back and help their future neighbors build homes, community and hope in St. Paul, Minnesota.
The 2019 Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project marked the 36th year that the former president and first lady have built alongside volunteers and future Habitat homeowners. Volunteers from across the country gathered to help families build roofs, walls and community.

Making a difference for families in need of affordable housing is a priority for the more than 175 Bank of America employees who are volunteering at Habitat’s Carter Work Project.
For over 30 years, former first lady Rosalynn Carter dedicated her voice, time and energy to building and advocating for affordable housing alongside Habitat. She once sat down with us to share why the mission of a decent, affordable home kept her coming back year after year.
