Biltmore's Annual Benefit: Build More 2008
Tuesday, September 30, 2008
South Terrace at Biltmore House
Join us for a memorable evening to benefit Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity. Enjoy an exclusive preview of the extensive Louis XV Suite Restoration Project currently taking place in Biltmore House, scheduled to open in spring 2009 and entertainment by nationally recognized humorist and author, Roy Blount, Jr.
Limited tickets are available. To reserve your tickets, and for more information, please call 828-225-1218.
We're honored to be involved with the Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity in support of their mission to build simple, decent houses with community volunteers in partnership with qualified families currently living in inadequate housing. In keeping with our emphasis on environmental stewardship, the net proceeds from the event will go towards a Biltmore-sponsored Healthy Built Habitat House to be constructed in the spring of 2009 by Biltmore employees and sponsors who wish to participate.
