Join us for an unforgettable night full of excitement and endless fun!
Enjoy fine dining, live music, and dance the night away at our 1st Annual Gala- The Blueprint Ball. Our organization has been devoted to serving the community and raising awareness for affordable housing for over 30 years. We are thrilled to share this accomplishment with you, as we push ahead to make a positive impact on people’s lives.
Proceeds raised at the gala will be directed towards Habitat Green Freedom, a neighborhood of 17 net-zero homes. Women and children make up the majority of residents in Habitat neighborhoods, and they are disproportionately affected by poverty and substandard living conditions. By working together, women can address these challenges by building, investing, educating, and advocating for more affordable and decent housing.
