The Weavers Grove Capital Campaign began in early 2020 and celebrated it’s completion on May 20, 2023. Nearly 300 donors contributed $8,171,885 toward the campaign, achieving the goal 18 months ahead of schedule.
Co-chairs of the $7.5M Weavers Grove Campaign were Betsy Blackwell and Mimi Hock. Habitat for Humanity of Orange County is the lead developer and is combining multiple funding sources for the $30M project.
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County has been working toward the Weavers Grove project for over a decade: acquiring a 32-acre parcel of land in an ideal location located close to public transportation, employment, schools, parks, health care, and shopping; working with local governments to align the vision; and managing financial resources to launch the development. The $7.5M Weavers Grove Campaign is the critical accelerator – we cannot accomplish the vision without philanthropic support.
Our innovative vision is affordable homeownership in a thriving Chapel Hill community of Habitat homeowners and market-rate homebuyers. Weavers Grove creates a new way to live as neighbors in a mixed-income, closely knit community of homeowners.
