Choose your build day opportunity

Book a build day
Looking for a meaningful team-building experience? A Build Day gets your group out of the office and onto the construction site: working together, learning new skills, and making a real difference for local families. Sponsorship opportunities are available and include brand recognition and community impact.

Industry build
Industry Build is a week-long event that brings energy-sector companies together to build homes and stronger communities. Sponsoring Industry Build is a powerful way to engage your team, showcase leadership in your industry, and make a lasting local impact.

Women build
Women Build is more than a day on the build site—it’s a movement that brings women together to learn new skills, support each other, and help families build stability through affordable homeownership. Sponsorship opportunities offer brand visibility, team engagement, and meaningful impact.

Build day investment
Bring your employees, colleagues or community group together for a hands-on Habitat Build Day in Thunder Bay.
Your team investment helps support local homebuilding while giving your group a meaningful day of teamwork, service and community impact.
Each Team Build participant is asked to raise a minimum of $500 in support of Habitat for Humanity Thunder Bay’s affordable homeownership program.
This contribution helps cover the materials, tools, safety equipment, and site support needed to make your Build Day possible, while directly helping local families build strength, stability, and independence through affordable homeownership.
Teams may contribute directly or use a custom Zeffy fundraising page to help reach their goal.
