Housing for Educators

Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity, in collaboration with Careers in Construction Colorado (CICC), and Widefield School District 3 (WSD3), is thrilled to announce the launch of a new Housing for Educators program designed to provide affordable housing opportunities for qualifying staff within Widefield School District 3.

Together, We Build Brighter Futures

Empowering Our Educators

At Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity, we recognize the immense value educators bring to our community as they nurture potential and inspire excellence in future generations. Despite their crucial role, many teaching professionals struggle to secure affordable housing within the very neighborhoods where they devote their careers and passion.

Our Housing for Educators Program addresses this critical need by providing affordable homeownership opportunities specifically designed for qualified staff within Widefield School District 3, ensuring they can live in the same communities where they teach, mentor, and inspire.
