Breaking Down The Barriers To Affordable Homeownership
At Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity, we believe everyone deserves a decent place to live. We help families become first-time homebuyers and make critical home repair affordable for existing homeowners. Since our founding in 1984, Milwaukee Habitat has helped nearly 1500 local families build or repair a place to call home.
The Power of Home
One in three Milwaukee renters spend half or more of their income on housing. This is unacceptable. Let's help families invest in and preserve homeownership.
Volunteer With Us
You don’t need to swing a hammer to build affordable homes. In addition to our construction volunteer opportunities, you can make a difference by cashiering at our ReStores, salvaging with our Deconstruction team, serving on a committee, and more!
Affordable Home Ownership & Repairs
Do you want to own your own brand new home? Are you a homeowner in need of critical repairs? We make homeownership and repairs affordable for qualifying families.

On Friday, Mayor Cavalier Johnson presented exciting news in our woodshop: the city was awarded a $3.4 million grant from the federal agency, which will be used to develop factory-built, highly-energy efficient affordable homes on city-owned vacant properties. Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity will pilot this initiative by building the first two net-zero homes, which will serve as a proof of concept for the initiative.
