For the fourth year, this big red truck is traveling across America to tell the story about poverty housing and what Thrivent Builds is doing about it – and how you can help. Check out the Thrivent Builds Mobile 2009 Tour Schedule to see where the truck has been and where it's headed next. Tour this unique traveling exhibit and you'll get a first-hand look at why substandard housing is such a serious problem and how we can all be part of the solution by helping families build simple, decent, affordable homes and achieve greater economic independence.

Thrivent Financial is committed to helping its members show their care and concern for others. Since 1991, Thrivent Financial and its members have worked with Habitat for Humanity to build more than 500 homes, raise more than $25 million and contribute more than 1.4 million volunteer hours in homebuilding time. Besides the unprecedented level of financial and volunteer support this new program will bring to Habitat for Humanity, what makes Thrivent Builds different than these past efforts is the new era of collaboration between the two organizations. With Thrivent Builds, more homes can be built in less time than was possible with past programs.
