Diamondback Energy Services volunteers teamed up with Habitat for Humanity to build homes in Midland, Texas, according to FirstAlert7. The joint effort reflects a growing partnership between local industry and nonprofit housing builders aimed at expanding affordable homeownership in the Permian Basin.
Habitat for Humanity has been active in the Permian Basin for 35 years, providing 0% interest mortgages to qualified applicants. In the past year, the organization completed 30 homes, and it announced plans to construct an additional 30 homes within the next year, further increasing the supply of affordable housing for Midland residents.
Michael, an employee of Diamondback Energy Services who volunteered on the worksite, encouraged broader community involvement. “I would just say get involved with the community. Habitat’s a great way. They’re building a ton of houses here in the Permian Basin. There’s other ways to get involved. Improve the community you’re going to live in, invest in the community you’re going to live in, so we can improve it today and tomorrow and into the future,” he said.
The volunteer day highlighted the practical ways local businesses can support neighborhood development. By contributing labor and expertise, Diamondback Energy Services helped accelerate the construction timeline, allowing Habitat to meet its upcoming housing targets. The collaboration underscores a shared commitment to strengthening families and neighborhoods in Midland.
What’s next: Habitat for Humanity will continue its building schedule, aiming to complete the additional 30 homes slated for the next year. Community members interested in volunteering or applying for the 0% interest mortgage program are encouraged to contact Habitat’s Midland office for more information.
