Habitat for Humanity

habitat for humanity of waukesha countyHabitat for Humanity of Waukesha County brings people together to build homes, communities and hope.

Relying extensively on volunteer labor, Habitat for Humanity of Waukesha County builds decent, affordable homes for families who are unable to purchase a home through traditional methods. Habitat does not give houses away; it believes in giving a hand up, not a hand out. By providing a home with an affordable mortgage, homeowners obtain self-sufficiency and break the cycle of poverty.

Partner families contribute “sweat equity” hours in place of a down payment. Volunteers contribute time and talent to reduce labor costs. Donations of money and construction materials further reduce construction cost.

Founded in 1989, Habitat of Waukesha has built over 30 homes and has helped many families bridge the housing gap.Habitat for Humanity ReStore Waukesha
