Thank you for your interest in helping Habitat! Our organization is built upon caring people like you who want to get involved. One of our core values is “Community”. We believe strongly in the value of people working and giving together to achieve a greater good. There’s a place for you to belong. We provide volunteer opportunities for people who like to stuff envelopes, and people who like to swing hammers (and everything in between!). Habitat is also a great place to invest your charitable donations. A typical Habitat house is valued at nearly twice what it costs us to construct it. This is thanks to our generous donors who help fund our housing initiatives. All donations to Habitat for Humanity of Franklin County are tax-deductible. Thank You!
