By design, Habitat for Humanity homes provide a strong foundation for families to flourish. During our inaugural Habitat House Design Contest in 2020, generously sponsored by Simpson Strong-Tie, more than 100 Habitat affiliates submitted their plans for sustainable, resilient homes to help families in their communities thrive.
Access to safe and reliable water, sanitation and hygiene — called WASH — is an integral component of adequate housing. By connecting communities with our solutions, we help advance health outcomes, environmental conservation, women’s empowerment, economic growth and education.
In 1991, five volunteers opened Habitat for Humanity’s first-ever ReStore in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Today, there are more than 1,000 ReStore locations across six countries, all contributing to Habitat’s vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
Thanks to our corporate and foundation partners for building alongside Habitat around the world. We are grateful for their unwavering support.
