Elkhart's Habitat For Humanity will go virtual for their Raise the Roof fundraiser

Elkhart County, Ind. -- Habitat for Humanity of Elkhart County will host their Raise the Roof fundraising event virtually this year.

Mark McGill will host the event along with Habitat’s President Greg Conrad and Board Chair, Braden McCormick on Friday, March 12 from 6 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. 

"We quickly made the change from an in-person event to going virtual and the support has been a huge blessing for Habitat,” said Conrad. 

The nine teams participating are Canterbury RV, Coldwell Banker Realtors, DOMETIC, Fireside Homes, Kuert Outdoor Living/Concrete, Lippert, L&W Engineering, NIBCO, and Welch Packaging.

Teams are participating by sharing what home means to them, and the public can participate by going to Habitat’s website by clicking here.

On the website, you will be able to view each team's stories with pictures and videos of their participation with the foundation.

After viewing the team's stories, you can vote for your favorite with a $1 donation per vote.

The goal for this year's event is to raise $100,000.

All of the proceeds raised during this event will go to Habitat’s Raise the Roof home being built this April.
