Greater Rochester Habitat for Humanity

We build homes, communities, and hope. Build with us.

We believe in a world where everyone has a decent place to live, and each day we invite partner families, volunteers, and donors to roll up their sleeves together. Through shelter, we empower ourselves, our neighbors, and our community.

Through shelter, we empower

Habitat for Humanity believes that no matter who you are, or where you come from, everyone deserves a decent place to live. We partner with people to help them build or improve a place they can call home.

Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. With your support, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability, and self-reliance they need to build a better life for themselves and for their families.

Mission
