About The Founder:
Camille Wagner
Camille Wagner is the visionary founder of CVW Developments, a nonprofit dedicated to transforming lives through affordable housing access, homeowner education, and community empowerment. With a background in corporate HR systems and organizational development, Camille brings together strategic planning, technical expertise, and a deep passion for helping families build stability and generational wealth.
Raised with firsthand experience of housing inequity, Camille founded CVW Developments to address the widening gap between hardworking families and attainable homeownership. Her belief is simple: everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to call home — and the tools to sustain it.
Drawing on her experience navigating housing programs, grant funding, and community partnerships, Camille leads CVW with purpose and integrity. Her approach centers on education-based empowerment — teaching individuals not only how to secure a home, but how to maintain, protect, and build upon that opportunity for years to come.
Beyond the nonprofit world, Camille is a builder at heart — constantly learning, creating, and connecting with others who believe in inclusive community development. Her long-term vision is to scale CVW’s programs across the Carolinas, uplifting families one home — and one homeowner — at a time.
