Founded in 1976, Habitat for Humanity is a Christian housing organization serving families in more than 70 countries around the world who are living in sub-standard housing. Since our founding, we have built or repaired over 1 million homes, providing more than 5 million people with safe, decent, affordable shelter!

In January 2010, a devastating earthquake in Haiti destroyed and damaged more than 200,000 homes leaving 1.5 million people homeless. In a country already struggling, this tragedy hit hard. Since the earthquake a complex story of survival, perseverance and renewal has unfolded. Habitat for Humanity Haiti (HFHH) has had the privilege of being a part of the rebuilding strategy and the work and need continues. With projects in the urban area of Port-au-Prince and beyond, HFHH is intervening to help in a way that provides holistic community development through infrastructure projects, repairs, retrofits and livelihood training. Over 70% of the population lives on less than $2/day and over 60% remain unemployed. Habitat's efforts are seeking to meet some of the deepest needs in the Haitian community.
