Keys to 100 Gala & Fundraiser

September 19, 2026

5:30 - 9:00 pm

Fete the Venue - Costa Mesa

Keys to 100 is Habitat OC’s signature event, supporting our bold initiative—we’re building homes to create homeownership opportunities for families in Orange County. This effort is driven by the growing and urgent need for affordable housing in the region, where rising costs have made it harder than ever for families to secure a place to call home.

Your support will directly contribute to building safe, affordable homes and creating brighter futures for hardworking families striving for the dream of homeownership. Together, we can make that dream a reality.

Table Sponsorship opportunities are available from $1,500 to $50,000, offering you the chance to make a lasting impact while enjoying a night to remember. Together, we can transform lives and strengthen our community.

  • Kim Shepherd, Board Member and Event Chair
  • Jamie Gwen, Board Member and Chef, Radio Host & Sommelier
  • Connor Halsted, Committee Volunteer
  • Brad Morton, Board Member and Past President, Eaton Corporation

This evening is more than just a celebration, it’s a powerful gathering to raise awareness and vital funds, empowering families and fostering strength and stability through homeownership.  Be part of this transformative journey in 2026.
