Our mission
A decent place to live, built by neighbours
"Seeking to put God's love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope."
Habitat for Humanity Barry County was incorporated on May 8, 1989 and since that time we have built 45 new homes in partnership with low-income Barry County families.
We are a Christian ministry run by a volunteer Board of Directors. Aside from a few key staff people, we rely on volunteer labor in the ReStore and on the construction site. Our vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
Home #46: framing underway
We have begun framing! The HHS Building Trades class is helping us out weekdays from 10 to noon. We could use your help for a few hours after the students leave the site on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and on Saturdays from 10 until 3. We are super excited to have the students helping! Contact Cindy for more details about how you can pitch in, or sign up here.
Or contact Cindy in the office at 269-948-9939
