Where: Baptist Grove Church, 7109 Leesville Rd, Raleigh

Time: 9 am - 5 pm (will likely end early)

Lunch will be provided

Purpose of retreat: To move ONE Wake, in our Homeownership to Equity campaign, from concrete asks to concrete results around land and money to build 2,000 units of affordable housing in Wake County.

Who should attend: Clergy and one or two top leaders from each institution (feel free to bring a board member who may be wondering about ONE Wake). We need to keep attendance manageable; thus, we are asking for a total of 3 people per institution (ideally, the Clergy and one or two leaders from each institution). We also welcome non-member clergy. Also, please add a note for folks to register, even if they have registered somewhere else.

Can you invite non-ONE Wake leaders? Please invite others you would like to work with you and ONE Wake to build more power with. Invite other clergy leaders and leaders of non-profits that may be interested in the work we do and in joining ONE Wake. 

Prep for the meeting: One huge step we want to take in this campaign is to find and organize 250 individuals who need affordable housing, especially homes. Please come prepared with a pledge of the number of people your institution will identify as needing affordable housing.

Please register here even if you feel you have registered on another form before.
