Thousands of volunteers gather in Atlanta to build 24 homes for Habitat for Humanity's 40th Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project
More than 1,000 volunteers will help raise walls and finish interiors for 24 homes as Habitat marks its 40th Carter Work Project.
- On May 4, 2026, thousands of volunteers launched the 40th Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project in Atlanta, building 24 homes—10 single-family houses and 14 townhomes—by May 8.
- Former President Jimmy and First Lady Rosalynn Carter launched the inaugural "blitz build" in 1984, establishing a legacy of expanding affordable homeownership that Habitat continues today.
- The project takes place in Atlanta's Sylvan Hills neighborhood at Langston Park, a 68-unit master-planned community offering residents seamless access to MARTA stations and the Atlanta BeltLine.
- "Habitat for Humanity has spent 50 years working toward a world where everyone has a safe, decent place to call home, and this is a vision we know we cannot achieve alone," said Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International.
- The project is supported by 100 sponsors, including The Home Depot Foundation; historically, the Carter partnership with Habitat has inspired more than 109,000 volunteers to build or improve more than 4,472 homes in 14 countries.
