UCF Shack-a-Thon (Community Event)

Shack-a-Thon is an annual event sponsored by the UCF Habitat for Humanity campus chapter. Our goal is to bring different student groups and community organizations together for a few days of fun and fundraising. Each group will build a shack with limited time and supplies while a festival of activities entertains participants and spectators. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the Habitat for Humanity Greater Orlando affiliate, directly impacting the issue of homelessness and substandard housing in the Central Florida area. Events like this are held by different Habitat campus chapters at universities all over the country and have been known to raise in excess of $15,000 in one night!
