CEO Build

Lead by Example. Build with Purpose.

We are proud to announce that the next CEO Build will return on Saturday, January 24, 2026, at BBI Village – Habitat Broward’s newest community under development. This invitation-only event unites distinguished CEOs and senior executives for a unique, hands-on morning of building, collaboration, and community leadership. Together, these leaders will help complete the finishing touches on new Habitat homes at BBI Village, working side-by-side with the families who will soon call this neighborhood home.

Habitat for Humanity of Broward - 2026 CEO Build

Why We Do It

This annual event raises funds, awareness and human capital to create more affordable workforce housing. The need has never been greater. Today, almost 9 out of 10 prospective Broward home hunters cannot afford to own a home.

If you’re interested in participating in our next CEO Build, contact us or call 954-396-3030 to participate next year.

The 2025 CEO Build brought together an extraordinary group of South Florida’s top leaders for a morning of purpose, partnership, and hands-on impact. These CEO’s showcased the power of leadership in action, and the commitment to building stronger, more resilient communities.

Watch the video to relive the energy, teamwork, and inspiration that defined the 2025 CEO Build.
