You might recognize our name. You've probably seen our volunteers on a construction site or driven past one of our homes. But do you know what Habitat for Humanity actually does?
At Habitat for Humanity of Northwest Indiana, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to have a safe, decent place to call home.
We're a nonprofit organization working to make affordable homeownership possible for individuals and families throughout Lake County. Through community partnerships, volunteers, donors, and the hard work of future homeowners, we help turn the dream of owning a home into a reality.
But here's something you might not know.
We don't give homes away.
Habitat homeowners work alongside us, meet program requirements, and purchase their homes through affordable mortgage arrangements. Our goal isn't simply to build houses. It's to create opportunities for long-term stability, independence, and stronger communities.
And our work doesn't stop at building new homes.
Through our home repair efforts, community partnerships, and ReStore, we continue finding ways to support homeowners and make housing more accessible across Northwest Indiana.
We're not just building in one neighborhood or one city. Our mission reaches across Lake County, wherever opportunities and resources allow us to serve.
Because to us, a home is more than four walls and a roof. It's a place to build a future.
Whether you volunteer, donate, shop at our ReStore, or simply help spread the word, there's a place for you in our mission.
We're Habitat for Humanity of Northwest Indiana. And we're building more than homes.
