Habitat For Humanity New York City

Habitat for Humanity New York City transforms lives and communities by building and preserving affordable homes with families in need, and by uniting all New Yorkers around the cause of affordable hou...sing. Founded in 1984 as an independent affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, Habitat NYC has served more than 700 families in the five boroughs through home construction and preservation, beginning with our very first build on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, during the first-ever Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project. Since then, Habitat NYC has brought together thousands of New Yorkers each year who become part of the solution to New York’s affordable housing need.
