Habitat for Humanity Edmonton is a community-based, non-profit, faith-based organization working for a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live. Our mission is to mobilize volunteers and community partners in building affordable housing and promoting homeownership as a means to breaking the cycle of poverty.

The organization was founded in 1991, is a member of Habitat for Humanity Canada, and part of a worldwide network that spans 100 countries, has built over 200,000 homes, and is now building a new home every 24 minutes.

Helping out with H4H can be in the form of helping at a Home Building Day or doing something a little less impressive but maybe even more important like helping out at the ReStore. Check the website for details
