Rock the Block Revitalizes Neighborhoods

Greater Fox Cities Area Habitat for Humanity not only offers housing assistance for families to buy affordable homes, we revitalize neighborhoods through Rock the Block events and our Home Repair Program.

Rock the Block brings together residents, municipalities and community partners to complete exterior home repairs for low-income homeowners. These projects improve and beautify neighborhoods, increase property values and have a ripple effect on all homes in targeted neighborhoods.

Our Rock the Block program works on both residential and community-based projects, providing affordable repairs including:

Porch repairs
Minor exterior repairs and improvements
Painting
Landscaping
And much more

See Rock the Block in Action!

Please enjoy this video to see how Rock the Block events support hardworking families in the greater Fox Cities. Fox Cities Habitat supports people who are struggling to manage exterior home maintenance due to finances or physical limitations.

Rock the Block serves communities by:

Keeping neighborhoods clean and safe
Improving property values for residents
Benefiting more than one family at a time
Unifying people with a common purpose
Increasing neighborhood pride and quality of life
Team building for neighbors, communities and company employees

Rock the Block is Free to Homeowners

Eligible homeowners who participate in the Rock the Block program are offered smaller-scale repairs and beautification projects at no cost to the homeowner. Homeowners contribute to the community with their own “sweat equity” going into their home updates, and labor is mostly offset through volunteers and community members.
