Home Sponsorship

Home sponsorship through Habitat for Humanity gives faith-based organizations and businesses an excellent opportunity to help families in need achieve homeownership, thus greatly improving their lives. Habitat projects help to revitalize Memphis-area neighborhoods and provide hope for everyone.

Because Habitat homes are built with volunteer labor, your sponsorship carries with it the chance to provide your members and colleagues a meaningful volunteer opportunity. No prior building experience required! Your willing hearts and hands truly can help build “The American Dream”!

Special Event Sponsorship

Involvement with one of Habitat for Humanity’s annual special events gives your organization an exceptional opportunity to assist in our efforts to eliminate substandard housing in Greater Memphis and beyond. Habitat boasts a range of events, including an upscale, yet relaxed dinner and silent auction, a dazzling Italian car show and a fun Super Bowl-themed promotion in which supporters host parties in their homes. Not only do special events help Habitat to raise much-need operating dollars, they also offer the following benefits for your company, civic group or faith-based organization:

1. Strong association with Habitat’s local initiatives
2. Possibility of local media coverage
3. Excellent PR throughout the community (invitations, posters, Web site, etc.)
4. Tickets to festive events at which you can entertain your employees, members or clients
5. The chance to truly see your dollars at work through a small organization that’s making a big impact

HabiTeam Sponsorship

Join locally based companies like FedEx, Hilton Hotels, International Paper and Poag & McEwen who have taken team-building to a whole new level! With a HabiTeam sponsorship , your employees and colleagues will enjoy the chance to take professional development outside of the conference room to an environment where they can really do some good…while learning to work more effectively together! These are primarily weekday building experiences. Habitat is willing to work with you and your team to facilitate on-site team-building curriculum and activities, beyond simply house building. Sponsorship levels vary according to individualized plans to meet each company’s needs.
