Business/Cocktail Attire
Across our region, the need for stable, accessible housing continues to grow—and so does the collective effort to meet it. Through new construction, preservation of existing homes, and innovative pathways to ownership, Habitat is working alongside communities to create lasting opportunities for families to build stability and equity.
The Habitat House Party celebrates the individuals and organizations whose leadership and partnership are driving meaningful progress in housing equity and community development. Together, we are strengthening neighborhoods and advancing solutions that help communities thrive.
Join us as we honor the people and partnerships making a lasting impact and help us expand access to affordable homeownership across New York.
Special thanks to conEdison, our Presenting Sponsor, for helping power pathways to affordable homeownership and ensuring a more sustainable future for New Yorkers.
