Story

Hi everyone— welcome to my page. I'm partnering with Habitat for Humanity for their #StayHomeBuildAHome challenge!

The premise of this awesome fundraiser is to build a miniature house—I made mine out of LEGO, of course!—and raise money to support Habitat for Humanity's critical work. During the global COVID-19 pandemic, the need for safe, decent, and affordable homes is as urgent as ever; people can't participate in stay-home orders without homes, after all.

I urge you to please, please donate what you can. If you are lucky enough to have a home of your own, I hope you can spare a few dollars to help those in need during this crisis.

But I'm also sweetening the deal— if you donate to this wonderful cause, I'll make it worth your while!

  • Donors of $5+ will receive a shout-out thank you on my new YouTube channel at the conclusion of the fundraiser.
  • Donors of $20+ will receive a handwritten thank-you postcard.* (limit: 30x)
  • Donors of $100+ will receive a personalized video message. (limit: 10x)

After you've donated, visit my website at aaronbrickdesigner.com/stayhomebuildahome and fill out the form. This is how I'll know how to address you your gift(s)!

Don't forget to participate in the challenge yourself! Make a mini-house, share it on Instagram, and tag #StayHomeBuildAHome. I will be sharing my top five favorite house builds at the conclusion of the fundraiser.

You have until Friday, May 1st, to donate— so get to it!
