Everyone Deserves a Decent Place to Live

We partner with our communities’ hardworking families that may struggle to access safe and affordable housing while covering all of life’s expenses. Our housing solutions include new home and rehab construction and the improvement of homes in need of critical repairs.

Additionally, we revitalize neighborhoods through our Rock the Block program and operate a ReStore in Appleton where donations of home goods and building materials are gratefully accepted.

Home is in Their Hands

We partner with donors, volunteers and sponsors to assist families with needed resources so they can buy and maintain their own homes.

The families we work with invest “sweat equity” by taking financial and home management courses, as well as physically building their homes with teams of skilled professionals and volunteers.

See what happens when families can access safe and affordable shelter by reading our Family Impact Study.

Women Empowering Women

“I wanted a house, I got a house, and I get to keep a house. It’s mine and I did it with the support of my friends, family, Habitat, and especially my sponsors.

My son never has to move, or change schools and be in that weird unknown. It’s calm, it’s safe, it’s his place, and that means everything to me because I didn’t have that growing up.”

– SHAUNNA TOOHEY

Celebrating a Mortgage Payoff

“Being that I was born and raised to take care of myself and not ask for help, that was the hardest hurdle. You don’t need to reach out to others, you need to do it yourself… in that process it helped me to be a little bit stronger and more confident. Even though I was asking for help, there were people that would be there for me.

Habitat for Humanity has taught me that I can ask for help without feeling shame about where I’ve been, because it’s where I’m going that really matters.”

– DOROTHY WESTPHAL
