Homecoming 2025
Build Dates: October 20 – November 1, 2025

Since 1993, Clemson students and the Pickens County Habitat Campus Chapter have led one of the most visible, hands-on traditions at the university—the Homecoming Build on Bowman Field. It’s not symbolic. It’s a real house, for a real family, framed by students in the heart of campus.

This fall, we’ll build our 32nd Homecoming House. And we need your help to finish it.

Donate today and be part of something that lasts longer than game day.

Framing the Habitat house on Bowman Field

Why We Build

Homecoming isn’t just floats and fanfare. It’s a time to show what this campus stands for. The Homecoming Build puts that belief into action. For two weeks, students raise a house on Bowman Field—then see it through to completion at its permanent site in Pickens County.

It’s student-led. It’s volunteer-powered. And it works. Over 10,000 Clemson students have helped build more than 30 homes through this tradition. Every year, that number grows.

This Year’s Build

From October 20 through November 1, students will frame the 2025 Homecoming House on Bowman Field. After Homecoming Week, the house will be moved and completed at its permanent site by student and community volunteers. By winter, a local family will be home.
