  • A nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry.

  • We seek to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action.

  • To accomplish these goals, we invite people of all backgrounds, races and religions to build houses together in partnership with families in need.

  • Habitat for Humanity was founded in 1976 by Millard Fuller, along with his wife, Linda.

A global, nonprofit housing organization founded in 1976 that helps families build and improve homes, aiming to provide safe, affordable housing.

Operating in all 50 U.S. states and over 70 countries, it works with volunteers and partners, requiring beneficiaries to contribute "sweat equity" hours and pay an affordable mortgage.
