Habitat for Humanity Central Arizona, Stearns Bank, Cullum Homes and hundreds of others joined host Carey Pena, and special guests Larry Fitzgerald and Hall of Famer Kurt Warner for a virtual fundraising night that raised $270,000 for the organization in June 2020.

More than 1,200 viewers enjoyed inspirational messages from Fitzgerald and Warner, while also hearing the stories of families impacted by the generosity of Habitat for Humanity.

In addition to Title Sponsor Stearns Bank, Habitat for Humanity also thanked its Investment Partners, Cullum Homes, and American Homes 4 Rent without whom this event would not have been possible.

“Financial contributions have been at an all-time low for many Valley charities following the pandemic and, like home building, we had to think outside of the box this year when it came to the planning the event and getting people to tune-in and contribute like never before,” said Lindsay Cullum-Colwell, event co-chair and managing principal of Cullum Homes.

As part of the event, online attendees had an opportunity to bid on dozens of one-of-a-kind auction items, and see first-hand how Habitat for Humanity is making a difference in the community through its Aging In Place program.

Habitat’s CEO called the virtual fundraising event a tremendous success.
