A large percentage of donations to Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity comes from individual contributors. Your gift not only helps build a house, but it is an investment in changing the lives of a new homeowner family. From the coins given by children from their piggy banks to a six-figure major gift by a corporate executive, each gift makes a difference.

Join Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity’s Giving Club. Participants in this club make an annual pledge at six varying levels, payable in six bi-monthly installments. Pledges can be paid at one time or bi-monthly. Donations can be made by check or credit card. Contributions provide a base of funding for construction of six of our houses. Participants receive a bi-monthly update with a story about the family for whom they are helping to provide a home.
