Mission Statement
Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope. Habitat for Humanity International was founded in 1976 by Linda and Millard Fuller in Americus, Georgia. Their goal was to tackle a significant social problem – affordable housing for all. Habitat believes that everyone deserves a simple, decent and affordable place to live. Our local Habitat affiliate, Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity, was founded in 1987. We operate three primary programs which are our ReStore, our Homeownership Program and Construction Team.
About This Cause
Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity operates three primary programs which are our ReStore, our Homeownership Program and our Home Repair Program. The ReStore is a retail operation that collects new and gently used donated home goods and building materials and sells them to the public at an affordable cost. Profits from the ReStore are used to support our housing programs. Since opening its doors in 2009, our ReStore has diverted over 5.2 million pounds of materials from landfills. Our Homeownership Program is what our affiliate is most well known for. This program allows our organization to partner with low to moderate income individuals or families in Brown County who wish to pursue homeownership. Interested applicants must meet our three program qualifications which include an applicant’s need for housing, ability to pay an affordable mortgage and willingness to partner. Habitat does not give homes away. Families pay a mortgage, insurance and property taxes. To date, we have partnered with 214 Adults and 384 children, to provide a permanent and affordable housing solution through this program.
