Reminder that the Resident Support Committee will be conducting Care Team training tomorrow from 10am-1pm for all current/interested members of Care/Support Teams. If you’re curious, come join us!🧡🤲🏽

An action-packed month in review!😮‍💨⚡️ In June, we enjoyed family fun with our Baldwin Park community, final-resident-move-in with our volunteer community, financial advising with our Pinnacle Bank community, future planning with our Town of Carrboro community, fellowship (convention style) with our Triangle housing partner community, and even some feline company with our Church of the Advocate community! There’s so much to do and so much to celebrate this summer, and we look forward to even more folks joining us in July 🤩🧡 #raisemoreroofs

This week, we finished moving in our tenth resident, a Chapel Hill native who’s been waiting for a Pee Wee Home for over half a decade, and who’s ready to make these 4(ish)walls his very own🏠 Thanks to everyone who donated and came out in the heat to clean and move and welcome home Mr. Tony! #raisemoreroofs #raisetheroof #affordablehousing #trianglenc

Reminiscing on our most recent move in day as our resident support team gathers to discuss a new season of community!

So very many thanks to the Oak Foundation for featuring us in their latest article! Click the link in our bio to read the full thing: “Across Orange County in North Carolina, a group of neighbours came together with a shared vision: to create affordable, tiny homes for, and with, people transitioning out of homelessness. Inspired by the tiny house movement, they saw the potential of small, efficient spaces to offer independence and sustainability – all within reach of people with fixed incomes, as well as older residents and people earning minimum wage. Their vision became Pee Wee Homes – a local initiative that sought to respond to the shortage of affordable housing in Orange County. These small independent houses range from 24 to 37 square metres in size (approximately 260 to 400 square feet) and are built out of sustainably sourced materials. Nestled throughout the neighbourhood on small lots of available land, they are creatively designed to maximise space. The organisation’s name honours Nathaniel “Pee Wee” Lee, a skilled brick mason who, although he had helped construct Chapel Hill several decades ago, ironically had nowhere to live himself. Following a stroke in 1995, he temporarily lost the ability to walk and speak, and was unable to work. He experienced homelessness for most of a decade. Only in later years, Pee Wee found stability in a studio apartment – one of the very few affordable homes in the community on his fixed income of USD 750 per month. Although Pee Wee passed away in August 2025, his memory lives on. “Pee Wee’s legacy lives on in every new home we build, resident we support, and in each donation, volunteer, and life transformed through our work,” says Alyssa Pacheco, administrative and communications specialist from Pee Wee Homes. And today, Pee Wee Homes offers much more than housing – it partners with local faith groups, not-for profit organisations, and residents of Orange County, to build networks of support. This wrap-around care offers people transitioning out of homelessness the opportunity to regain a sense of stability in their lives, and to live with dignity, surrounded by community.”
