Building Houses, Building Hope, Building Philadelphia.

Building a Better World - One Home, One Family at a time.

This is the spirit of Habitat for Humanity that has inspired thousands of people and organizations in the Philadelphia community to get involved and help make a difference. It started as a grass-roots effort and has become an organized movement dedicated to providing simple, decent, affordable homes for families who lack adequate shelter. Volunteers are central to Habitat for Humanity Philadelphia's mission.

In addition to our other opportunities, we encourage you to dive into volunteering at the newest addition to Habitat Philadelphia—our ReStore!

There are many ways to contribute your time and energy to Habitat Philadelphia!
