Students and youngsters are Habitat for Humanity champions in the struggle to overcome the scourge of substandard housing

Habitat for Humanity engages school and college students along with youth groups to join other young people around the world who are serving with those in need.

Involvement with a Habitat for Humanity program helps youngsters to expand their worldview, grow personally and spiritually, and develop professional skills, and most importantly make a difference in the lives of families in need of decent shelter

Rise to the Challenge - Make a Difference
Young people can make a difference by:

  • Learning first-hand how poverty housing undermines the life chances of children and adults alike.
  • Acting in ways to raise a voice, hammer a nail, lay a brick, post a blog and so much more
