HopeBuilder Lunch

The HopeBuilder Lunch is an inspiring gathering that unites our community to open the door to positive change.

Habitat’s largest annual event

HopeBuilder Lunch brings together people who believe in the power of home to create lasting change. This uplifting gathering highlights Habitat’s impact by sharing the real stories of families and individuals building stability, opportunity, and community across the Portland region. 

As Habitat’s largest annual event, HopeBuilder Lunch welcomes community members, business leaders, and philanthropists who want to learn more about our work and be part of expanding access to affordable homeownership. Together, we’ll explore how Habitat’s programs are strengthening neighborhoods today and opening doors for the future. 

This year, our goal is to raise $500,000 to support Habitat’s essential programs — helping more families build safe, affordable homes and a foundation for what comes next. Join us to feel inspired, energized, and connected to a community working toward housing equity.
