After a year of dedicated effort, Wichita Habitat for Humanity is thrilled to announce the start of Rock the Block Piatt! We’ve worked diligently with the City of Wichita, navigating a competitive Affordable Housing Fund RFP process, to secure 16 homes previously part of the public housing stock. Now, the wait is over, and the real work begins.

This initiative marks a new chapter for northeast Wichita. Our dedicated team, along with our volunteers, are ready to roll up our sleeves and embark on a transformative journey. We are not just rehabilitating houses; we are building safe, affordable homes for families in need, and revitalizing a vital part of our community.

These photos offer just a glimpse of the incredible transformation happening on our construction site. Every swing of the hammer, every brushstroke of paint, represents a future filled with promise and opportunity.

How you can get involved:

We can’t do this alone. Your support is crucial to making Rock the Block Piatt a resounding success.

• Volunteer: Roll up your sleeves and join the effort! Whether you’re a seasoned construction pro or a first-time volunteer, your hands-on help is invaluable.
• Donate: Every dollar makes a difference. Your contributions will help cover the costs of materials, tools, and other essential resources while supporting our ongoing efforts.

We look forward to launching an official kick-off of Rock the Block Piatt in April! Stay tuned.

Let’s work together to build a brighter future for northeast Wichita, one home at a time.
