Habitat for Humanity L.A. on Friday hosted an event to honor former President Jimmy Carter’s massive contributions to the organization throughout his life.

People at the event, hosted at Habitat for Humanity’s regional headquarters in Bellflower, signed a door with their names and personal messages to symbolize “the many doors of opportunity President Carter made possible through his life of service to others,” the organization said.

Carter died at age 100 on Sunday, leaving behind a legacy of volunteerism, peacemaking, and humanitarianism.

Among his many philanthropic endeavors, Carter and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, worked with Habitat for Humanity for more than three decades, according to the organization’s website, through the Carter Work Project — which was established in 1984.

Each year, the Carter Work Project, according to the organization’s website, brings together thousands of volunteers, celebrities, and elected officials to build homes and spotlight affordable housing needs in a specific location over a weeklong period.

“Together, they’ve worked alongside over 108,100 volunteers who have built, renovated or repaired more than 4,447 homes in 14 countries,” the organization said, “all while raising awareness of the critical need for affordable housing.”

The 2025 edition of the Carter Work Project is slated to get underway in Austin, Texas, from Oct. 26 to 31.

“We hope you will join us and others around the globe in celebrating this selfless humanitarian,” the organization’s website said.

“(A)nd ensuring his legacy lives on through your continued support of our mission.”
