Habitat Pride welcomes friends and supporters of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community to build with us at our newest home build site in Kitchener.  Building homes for local families in support of our vision of a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live. No construction experience is required.

Building affordable homes is everyone’s business and Pride Build is a great way to celebrate diversity and inclusivity by building homes for local families. Join us as we harness the power of Pride Month to help families build strength, stability and self-reliance.

What is a Pride Build?

Pride Build is a celebration of inclusion, bringing together friends and allies of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community to make a tangible difference through affordable housing. It’s a unique opportunity to step onto the build site, learn new skills, and help create lasting change, while working alongside welcoming staff and volunteers who are passionate about building both homes and community.

While construction sites aren't always seen as safe or inclusive spaces, Habitat Waterloo Region is proud to offer a supportive, affirming environment where everyone is welcome to show up, be themselves, and contribute to something meaningful.

All Pride Build participants are encouraged to fundraise towards our goal of $1500 and join us for an exciting Pride Build. All funds raised go directly to support Habitat for Humanity Waterloo Region’s build program.

The event is 9am-4pm at our new build site on St. George Street in Kitchener.

We provide:

• Tools, materials, supplies, personal protective equipment, experienced Crew Leaders and enthusiasm
• A Pride Day event shirt
• Lunch and snacks to fuel your day
• Photos of the day, posted to our Flickr account
• An invitation to our next Family Dedication event
