What is a HopeBuilder?
Members of the HopeBuilder Club are a special group of our valued partners dedicated to helping families in need of safe, affordable housing in Chaffee County.
HopeBuilders make small, automatic donations every month, which makes it easier for Habitat to plan long-term, budget more efficiently, and create more life-changing outcomes. You choose how much to give and for how long, and you can change your amount or cancel at any time.

Which club level works best for me?
The HopeBuilders Club has seven levels available to fit all budgets. Each level provides Chaffee County Habitat with a consistent and reliable source of funding that allows us to plan ahead.
Start small if monthly giving is new to you. Just twenty dollars a month will amount to $240 by the end of the year. That is substantial giving and provides a family with the equivalent of a door to keep them safe and secure.
Check out the Builder Levels below to decide which option works best for you!
