Families who partner with Habitat build their own homes alongside volunteers, pay an affordable mortgage and are grateful for your help.

• One-Time and Monthly Giving: Donations within specified amounts are encouraged. You may also give any amount of your choice. Memorial and Gifts honoring Birthdays, Holidays, Celebrations, Milestones and achievements or just to honor of someone special are “Gifts from the Heart.”
• Gift Catalog: The Habitat Gift Catalog offers symbolic gifts that are representative of the materials and services Habitat for Humanity uses and provides to build decent homes around the world. When you purchase gifts from the catalog, you are funding life-changing work to help families take a big step to a better, more stable life.

This is a fast and simple process which can be done through an electronic transfer, or certificates can be donated through the mail. Donations of stocks allows us to ensure that even more families around the world have a safe, affordable place to call home. The global housing crisis presents an ever-growing need, and we use everything at our disposal to respond.
  • Donor-Advised Funds: A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is a charitable giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite causes. Donor-advised funds can easily be set up through a community foundation or your financial institution.
• Workplace Giving: We know that when you take the time to give, you want simple and convenient options. To accommodate this request, Habitat partners with employers all over the U.S. to allow their employees the option of giving through the workplace. Regular contributions from hardworking employees and their employers make a big impact over time by helping families build strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter.
