Habitat for Humanity of Eastern Connecticut is a local affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International.
Habitat for Humanity is an international nonprofit housing organization.
We partner with local families who agree to invest “sweat equity” into helping to build their future home. Habitat homeowners work alongside our professional construction staff and our corps of volunteers to build homes in Eastern Connecticut.
Our families then partner to buy their home from us with an affordable mortgage.
Habitat’s vision is of a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
Donate
Families who partner with us build their own homes alongside volunteers, pay an affordable mortgage and are grateful for your help.
Homeownership
Together we build homes, communities, and hope.
Those who are poorly housed with no way to buy a home on their own are encouraged to apply to become Habitat for Humanity homeowners.
Volunteer
Volunteer efforts transform entire neighborhoods.
When you build with Habitat in your community, you help families achieve strength, stability, and self-reliance to build a better life.
The Habitat for Humanity ReStore sells quality new and gently used furniture, appliances, and building materials at deep discounts. Proceeds enable Habitat for Humanity of Eastern Connecticut to build more homes in partnership with families who are in need of decent shelter and an affordable mortgage.
