Twin Cities Entrepreneurs House
The house is a community service project for the Twin Cities entrepreneurial community. A group of companies, investment firms and other businesses that serve the entrepreneurial community are coming together to build a house as a part of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity. The project allows for a valuable team-building experience for your employees, while also providing this important community contribution.

2010 House We kicked off our 8th Entrepreneurs House in May. We have signed up over 400 volunteers and we are on our way to raising $120,000 in accompanying charitable contributions. We still have room for more companies to join the 2010 project. Each volunteering company brings a team of employees to work on the house for one full day (8am to 4:30pm) between now and the middle of August 2010. >download brochure (pdf 380k)

Watch why so many people in the Twin Cities business community believe Housing Matters.

Focus on Foreclosures
The foreclosure crisis produced a glut of foreclosed properties and left other developments unfinished. We have a great opportunity — the chance to re-establish and preserve affordable homeownership in the neighborhoods that need it the most.

Habitat for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity is an international non-profit organization that builds homes for low income families. Over 1,500,000 people live in over 300,000 homes built by Habitat over its 30 year history. Habitat’s approach is oriented toward helping less fortunate families to help themselves by building homes with volunteer labor and then selling the homes to the families at an affordable cost with a zero interest mortgage. Habitat is a Christian-based organization, drawing its fundamental tenets from the biblical principles of serving the poor and charging no interest on lending money to those less fortunate. Supporters of Habitat include large numbers of religious congregations, corporations, and individuals.
