Celebrating the Women of New Castle County
Did You Know . . .
over 80% of our Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County homeowners are women, and

a majority of those women are first time homeowners, and

many of our major, individual donors are women?

The women who strengthen New Castle County through home-ownership and philanthropy embody stability, strength, and hope.

We thank you for all that you do!
Latest Happenings
Rock The Block
30 ring video doorbells installed!
March 13, 2022 - HFHNCC’s Rock the Block (RTB) team and 18 volunteers installed 35 Ring Video Doorbells, free of charge, for homeowners in Northeast Wilmington. Essentially a security device, ring video doorbells contain a camera that allows you to see and speak with anyone who rings it, and a motion detector that can capture anyone or anything near your property.

Rock the Block is provided in part by donations from Healthy Communities Delaware, Republic Services Charitable Foundation, Old Brandywine Village Inc., Comenity, and Amazon. Sign up to volunteer at one of our next Rock the Block events.

Rock the Block is part of our work to revitalize neighborhoods in New Castle County--one family, one block, one street at a time. Residents in the Northeast and Eastside areas of Wilmington team up with Habitat staff and volunteers for a one or two-day blitz to repair, refresh, and restore a neighborhood where Habitat is currently building.

Thank you AmeriCorps NCCC Team!
 
The AmeriCorps NCCC team, known as River 6, is a specialty “construction team” focused on construction-related projects throughout their deployment while learning specialty construction skills to support their service.
 
River 6 arrived in Wilmington on January 14, 2022, to support Habitat NCC’s efforts to build 12 townhomes on one block in Wilmington. They have supported building the foundation of multiple townhomes and framing, drywalling, siding, painting and other finishing touches on several homes.
