Raise the Roof 2026

Together We RAISED the ROOF in 2026!

Nearly 200 guests gathered on February 28, 2026 for Raise the Roof, our annual, signature fundraiser and an unforgettable evening filled with delicious food, great music and plenty of dancing.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our sponsors, auction donors and attendees, the silent and live auctions raised a record-breaking amount in support of our mission!

Even more exciting, the evening’s proceeds were enough to fund the construction of one entire Habitat house — bringing us one step closer to welcoming another local family into a new home.

Enjoy these, a few photos from the evening.
