Habitat NOVA Fundraiser

Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia (Habitat NOVA) has teamed up with ArtInsights Animation and Film Art Gallery to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of The Wizard of Oz and raise funds to support affordable home ownership opportunities. This month long gallery show and sale showcases new original artwork referencing The Wizard of Oz. Ten percent of sales of officially licensed art of The Wizard of Oz sold during the exhibit, which runs from August 15, 2014, to September 15, 2014, will benefit Habitat NOVA.

In addition to the gallery show and sale this online silent auction (running through the end of the exhibit) will benefit Habitat NOVA.

All proceeds from this silent auction will go directly to support the mission of Habitat NOVA.

There's No Place Like Home - a year-long celebration of the release of the movie is a joint venture of Warner Brothers and Habitat for Humanity.

Habitat NOVA brings our community together to build decent, affordable housing – and hope – for people in need. Habitat provides a “hand up” to home ownership through sweat equity, donor generosity, volunteer labor and interest-free mortgages.
