About Habitat for Humanity
of Hood County

Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI) was founded in 1976 by Millard and Linda Fuller as a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry. HFHI works in partnership with God and people everywhere to build decent, affordable houses, thereby eliminating poverty housing and homelessness throughout the face of the earth. Since 1976 HFHI has built tens of thousands of houses around the world, providing safe, decent, affordable shelter for hundreds of thousands of people.

Habitat for Humanity of Hood County (HFHHC) was officially established in August 1996 and is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International.  With the generosity of churches, individuals, businesses and faithful volunteers we build at least 4 houses per year; 2 in the fall and 2 in the winter/spring.  Our affiliate stops building during the hot summer days.  Typically, approximately 175 individuals are involved in construction of each Habitat home.  HFH of Hood County builds 2, 3 or 4 bedroom homes.  The approximate cost to build in Hood County is $45,000.
