Host an Event
Habitat for Humanity Portland/Metro East appreciates all who want to help us further our mission to create successful homeownership by partnering hardworking families in need with the community to build healthy, affordable homes. One of the many ways to support Habitat is by planning an event to raise funds for our affiliate, known as a”third-party fundraiser.” We are grateful for funds raised through third-party fundraisers, as they help us to continue building locally. As the event organizer, we ask that you assume the responsibility of creating an event without any (or very limited) staff assistance. The nature of these fundraisers limits us because we cannot schedule, budget, nor predict a reliable source of revenue from such events. For full details about how to host a fundraising event for Habitat please download this third-party fundraiser pdf.
Sponsor an Event
Sponsorships provide an excellent opportunity for corporations and individuals to display their commitment to improving local housing. Sponsor names and logos are incorporated into an extensive marketing campaign. Please consider supporting a signature event that will enable Habitat for Humanity Portland/Metro East to build homes.

With constantly rising rent and high utility expenses, Emanuel Beng and Abuk Mou work diligently to support their five children. Emanuel is a custodian at a building in downtown Portland and Abuk works for a uniform production company. Even though both of them work full-time, it has been difficult for them to make ends meet. The family has rented a house in southeast Portland for the past four years that is in poor condition.
