Bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope in Huron County.
To bring communities together to help families build strength, stability and self-reliance through affordable homeownership.
Families apply, selected on need, willingness, ability to pay.
Sweat equity hours, helping build their own home.
No down payment, 0% interest, 30% of income.
As the family pays their mortgage, that money goes into the Build Fund to support future builds.
A world where everyone has a safe, decent, and affordable place to live.

We believe that access to safe and decent housing is a basic human right.
We respect and believe in the worth and dignity of every human being. We recognize the people we serve and those that help us as our greatest resource.
We believe we can best achieve our mission through meaningful and mutually beneficial partnerships with others.
We believe that faith is lived through action. We serve others in a spirit of justice and compassion alongside people of all faiths and beliefs.
We believe there is a role for everyone committed to our mission, vision and values, and we seek to enrich our organization through diversity.
In 2003, a small group of people from the Hensall United Church established a seed committee to determine whether a county-wide approach would be the best way to embark on the Habitat journey. Similar ideas had been expressed in the north end of the county, including Wingham. From those humble beginnings, Habitat for Humanity Huron County began to take shape.
Since our inception, we have built, on average, a home a year. Three ReStores were opened, and the revenue they generate helps cover administrative costs and supports our construction projects.
Affordable homeownership changes everything. When a family has a stable home, children do better in school, health improves, and the whole community benefits. That's the multiplier effect of what we do.
Your generosity helps families in Huron County build strength, stability, and independence through affordable homeownership. Whether it's $25 or $2,500, every contribution makes a difference.
