Habitat for Humanity of Lee and Hendry Counties is partnering with Lee County to build five affordable housing projects with the support of the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR). This initiative will provide 204 affordable homes to families in need, helping rebuild our community after Hurricane Ian.
The CDBG-DR grant is allocated to partially fund five affordable housing projects, resulting in 204 affordable homes. This partial funding helps us complete two Habitat neighborhoods underway, Heritage Heights in Harlem Heights and McNeill Village in North Fort Myers. Additionally, it will support the advancement of three new projects, Diplomat South in North Fort Myers, White Coral in Fort Myers, and scattered lots in Cape Coral.
Building these homes and neighborhoods takes everyone—this grant covers a portion of the total cost, but it’s the support of donors, volunteers, and our community that makes these homes a reality. Your generosity enables us to start and sustain construction, delivering safe, affordable housing and creating a lasting impact in Lee County.
Your continued support is critical, and this is an opportunity to double the impact of grant funding. Homes, along with the necessary site work and infrastructure, must be completed before we can access the grant funds. While the grant has been approved, it will only be activated after the completion of each home. Click here to donate.
