About

Carter work project

🏡 June is Homeownership Month, and we're celebrating by sharing the stories behind the homes. First up: Taka, Phileena, and Maurica. The Carter Work Project may have put a spotlight on Sylvan Hills, but the real story is what happened between the houses. These women met as homebuyers. Then they became friends. They spent their build days bouncing between each other's homes painting walls, installing siding, laughing, praying, and helping wherever they were needed. By the end of the week, they had built more than houses. They had built a support system. Now they're stepping into homeownership already surrounded by neighbors who are rooting for them every step of the way. This is what community looks like. This is what community builds. 💙 Follow along all month as we share stories of homeownership and community. 🔗 Support the work through the link in our bio. #HomeownershipMonth #AH4H #ATLBuildsDifferent #BuildingCommunity #Homeownership #CWP26

After months of planning and one unforgettable week on the build site, we’re taking a moment to pause and reflect on everything we accomplished as a community. From May 18–25, Atlanta Habitat staff will be stepping away for a full Week of Rest and Reflection in recognition of the hard work and energy poured into this mission. Thank you to everyone who supported the Carter Work Project and helped make this week possible. We can’t wait to share more stories from the build site when we return. 💙

Atlanta… y’all really built different. 🏡✨ In just five days, more than 2,000 volunteers, partners, homeowners, and supporters came together to build 24 homes during the 2026 Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project. Thank you to every volunteer who raised walls, carried supplies, cheered on homeowners, danced on the build site, and poured love into this work. ❤️ We did it, Atlanta. And we’re just getting started. #CarterWorkProject2026 #ATLBuildsDifferent #AH4H #Buildingcommunity #ATL

Over the past five days, volunteers, homeowners, partners, and supporters came together to build more than houses. Together, we built community, created opportunity, and sparked momentum that will ripple far beyond this week. What a powerful way to close out the Carter Work Project. 🏡 The hammers may be quieter now, but the stories are just getting started! Stay tuned over the next few weeks as we share more moments, memories, and voices from the build site. #CarterWorkProject #ATLBuildsDifferent

Final day: Home Team Block Party 🏟️🏡 A week of building. A city that showed up. From Olympic pride to everyday teamwork, ATL brought the energy all week long. And what a way to close out the Carter Work Project. #ATLBuildsDifferent #CWP26 #HomeTeamBlockParty
