We're the local Habitat affiliate serving El Paso County. With homeowner partners, volunteers, and donors, we build new homes, repair existing ones, and run the Habitat ReStore that helps fund it all. One family, one address at a time.

How Habitat works

It's a hand up, not a handout. Homeowner partners invest hundreds of hours of sweat equity, complete homeownership classes, and buy their homes with an affordable mortgage. Donations and volunteer hours make every build possible.
