Team Fundraising Page of Hinsdale South Habitat for Humanity Campus Chapter

Campus chapters set the foundation for Habitat’s work related to our school. This includes helping set up volunteer opportunities, educating our school and community around issues related to housing and Habitat, fundraising in our local area to support more housing opportunities and speaking with our community officials to prioritize shelter. Campus chapters are guided by four functions: 1. Direct service - Campus chapters partner with their local Habitat volunteering on new home construction, rehabilitation, rehab, neighborhood revitalization, Habitat ReStore and office tasks. 2. Fundraising - Campus chapters raise funds to support the work of their local Habitat for Humanity and Habitat for Humanity International. Chapters may contribute through various fundraisers in partnership with their local Habitat or toward the tithe program. 3. Advocating - Campus chapter leaders and members must advocate for affordable housing because building is only one critical piece to answering the need for affordable housing. Being a Habitat advocate means raising your voice to shape policies to serve people in need of decent housing. 4. Educating - Campus chapters educate others on their campus and in their local community about the importance and need for strong, stable housing and what Habitat does to increase access to housing solutions.
