It’s time to get your hands dirty for an amazing local cause! The 9th Annual House That Rock Built with WRAT and Monmouth County Habitat for Humanity will take place in the parking lot of Land Rover Monmouth in Eatontown on Wednesday, October 9th and we need your help! This is where this house begins.
At some point in the not-so-distant future, a local family will be sitting around their dinner table sharing a meal… they’ll be helping their kids with homework… Mom might be eyeing some cookies in the oven and Dad just might be complaining, “Who put the thermostat so high!” (Lol, all dad’s do it…)
The family will be thankful and honored to be part of the community as they realize the amazing feeling of having their OWN roof over their OWN heads! And it all starts with you: The good people of the Rat Rock Nation who will realize that helping to build a house for a worthy family is one of the best ways to encourage a community to grow in a healthy way. It’s not a hand out to the family… they’ll be banging nails and working alongside you… They’ll have a mortgage to pay too… But it’ll all be affordable because of you and the hard work of Habitat for Humanity of Monmouth County.
So.. if you’ve ever banged a nail – or even if you haven’t – please join us on October 9th as we put the walls together for the House That Rock Built 2024!

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?
Everyone counts here on the Jersey Shore and the difference that Habitat for Humanity makes is gigantic.
The family that receives this incredible gift will earn it. They’ll be banging nails right alongside us and they’re specially picked because of their work ethic and dedication to the project.
This isn’t a handout… but a way for a family to get a leg up on a better, more stable life on the Jersey Shore.
