Habitat For Humanity

About

We are a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian ministry founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a decent, safe, and affordable place to live. We build with people in need regardless of race or religion. We welcome volunteers and supporters from all backgrounds.

Our houses are simple, decent, and affordable to low-income families around the world.  Whenever possible, we build sustainable, energy-efficient and healthy housing. Learn more about our construction technologies.

Nearly 2 billion people around the world live in slum housing and over 100 million are homeless. Habitat for Humanity is needed to help eliminate poverty by providing simple, decent shelter to those in need.

Families left homeless by natural disasters, war and civil unrest often face dire housing situations as they struggle to rebuild their lives. Habitat for Humanity’s Disaster Response program provides shelter and housing solutions to help these families recover.
