About Habitat for Humanity of the Charlotte Region
Habitat For Humanity Of The Charlotte Region directs nearly all of its recent grantmaking to the Habitat network itself, with the largest award in the file going to Habitat for Humanity International for annual international support. The foundation’s giving is tightly aligned with housing access: funds support new construction, rehabilitation, repair, recycling, and institutional support across Habitat affiliates rather than a broad mix of unrelated causes. Recent grants also show a second layer of support for Habitat for Humanity of North Carolina, including project fees tied to the number of rehab, recycle, new, and repair projects. That mix points to a funder that uses grants to sustain both global Habitat operations and state-level affiliate work. Its recent records show a pattern of annual support at the international level, alongside smaller project-based awards closer to home. The foundation’s work is mission-specific and operational in nature, with funding directed through Habitat entities that build and preserve affordable homes.

Housing construction is central to the foundation’s grantmaking. In 2023, it awarded $512,103 to Habitat for Humanity International Inc for annual international support, and in 2024 it gave $484,572 for the same purpose. The foundation also backs affiliate-level project work: Habitat for Humanity of North Carolina received $46,555 in 2025 for project fees tied to the number of rehab, recycle, new, and repair projects.

The same pattern appears in the Charlotte region’s own program structure, which includes Homebuyer Program and Critical Home Repair among its active programs. Taken together, the grants emphasize operational support for housing production, rehabilitation, and repair within the Habitat system.
