Provide a hand up for hardworking families
Every gift helps a family help themselves.
With a little help, we all have the potential to stand on our own.
“I love that we are now in a safe neighborhood that I can let my daughter ride her scooter down our street and have peace of mind that she’s safe. We are forever grateful to each of you that helped to make this possible for us.”
“We now have a forever home that I can spend a lifetime making memories in with my children, family, and friends, and my grandchildren someday. It feels good to actually have something I can pass down...”
We believe in a world – and a community– where everyone has a decent place to call home.
That takes commitments from people like you who want to make an investment to transform lives.
Habitat continues to experience an increase in the number of local families coming to us for housing help. Your direct investment in home building is needed now more than ever!
Together, we can transform lives and strengthen our community through the power of homeownership.

“I spent almost every Saturday working on other people’s homes in order to obtain my sweat equity hours. After a couple of months, I was able to choose the lot where my home would be built. Now I wake up every morning in my own home that I helped build.
Without the help and support from Habitat staff and all of the wonderful volunteers, I would not be in this home today. Since we have been a part of the Habitat family, I have been able to help others too. This experience has really changed my heart and helped me grow as an individual. I love what Habitat for Humanity did for my family and I look forward to watching many more families experience the same joy that we have felt.”
