Christina wanted to move out of her rental apartment and invest in a home of her own. She looked on the open market but when she found Habitat, what she saw was ‘community.’
“Other homeownership [opportunities] don’t bring the community together like this,” says Christina. “I like that the community gets to know each other.”
Christina is investing in a four bedroom home in the Harambee neighborhood. She sees it as an opportunity to put the money she allocated for rent into a valuable asset that her family can rely on in the future.
“It’s not worth the $1000 [per month] in rent,” says Christina. “I [didn’t] even let my kids go outside and play because it’s not safe.”
Instead, Christina built a brand new home where she has a fenced in backyard, more room for her family, and a second bathroom. She is happy to have a place they can truly call their own.
“I’m trying so hard,” Christina says. “I just want the best for [my kids].”
With the savings she is accruing with Habitat’s affordable mortgage, Christina sees more opportunities in the near and long term.
“They want to go to college – this can go to savings,” she says. “I can put them into sports.” Christina worked extremely hard to put herself and her family in a position to buy this home. When first asked what she would do once she got the keys to her home she said, “Just relax and enjoy it.”
Christina moved in June, 2023.

Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity

Board President ('23)
Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity
The last year has been a year of growth and transformation for Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity. And it would not have been possible without you.
Thank you for believing in the power of this mission. You are shaping the lives of local families at a time when the cost of housing is going up in ways we’ve never seen before in this community.
Milwaukee has the second fastest rising rent in the United States. This is putting families struggling with our affordable housing crisis in near impossible situations.
That’s why I am so energized that for the first time in Milwaukee, a plan has been created to align affordable housing providers, supporters, and advocates throughout the city. The Community Development Alliance’s (CDA) Collective Affordable Housing Plan outlines what needs to be done to address our city’s tremendous need for more affordable and equitable housing.
A road map has been created to more strategically and efficiently address our city’s affordable housing crisis. Through this partnership, Milwaukee County designated $4.2M of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to increase homeownership in Milwaukee neighborhoods like King Park and Midtown. The grant is equivalent to a down payment on our plans for the future.
This year, Milwaukee Habitat broke ground on an ambitious new goal to double the number of families we serve by 2028. Over the next five years, our goal is to expand to consistently build more than 30 homes per year on our way to 40 per year by 2028. While at same time, doubling the number Critical Home Repair homeowners served - from 40-50 per year to 80-100 per year by 2028.
Whether you’re a Habitat homeowner, donor, volunteer, advocate, staff, AmeriCorps member, or community partner - know that your role is essential. Foundational to our mission is bringing people together. Thank you for being a member of this vibrant, big-hearted, and determined Habitat community.
In Partnership,
Brian Sonderman
Chief Executive Officer

critical home repair
At Habitat for Humanity, we believe everyone deserves a decent place to live. In addition to building and selling new and rehabbed homes, we also make critical home repairs for homeowners in the neighborhoods where we build. These repairs include roofs, plumbing, electrical hazards, and more for qualified families.
The program offers a 0% interest loan on repairs, flexible repayment options, and up to 80% of the loan could be forgiven based on income.
families served in 2023
Swayzine and James drove by the same house on 29th Street for years. As they drove by, they talked about what it would be like to live in it.
Then, almost 10 years later, Swayzine, James, and their children moved from their apartment into their Habitat home. The same home they had driven past years prior and admired from the street.
In the early days of the organization, Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity rehabilitated homes and sold them for an affordable mortgage to Milwaukee families. Swayzine, James, and their children moved into their rehabbed Habitat home in 2002 and have been there since.
Since day one of moving into their home, James made sure to keep it up. Swayzine described him as a “visionary” when it came to home repairs and upkeep.
Now, the upkeep of the home falls on Swayzine. James passed away on August 3rd, 2023.
Swayzine continued her late husband’s work as soon as she could. A little over a month after his passing, Swayzine came back to Milwaukee Habitat to help repair their home. Through our Critical Home Repair Program, Swayzine is getting their porch repaired at an affordable price.
Through the program, homeowners can get up to 80% of the project costs covered based on income, a 0% interest loan on repairs, and flexible repayment options.
The organization that once helped them become homeowners, is now helping Swayzine keep up their home in her husband’s honor.
lead abatement
Milwaukee Habitat offers lead abatement services at no cost. Lead abatement is designed to mitigate lead-based hazards in homes built before 1978. This typically includes lead-based paint on plaster, doors, windows, flooring, and exterior surfaces. This work is funded in partnership with the Milwaukee Health Department and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
Sisters Shawn and Denise have lived in their home for the last seven years and they recently went through the Milwaukee Habitat Lead Abatement Program.
“It feels wonderful to be safe from lead,” Shawn said. “[It is] one less thing to worry about with grandkids and great nieces and nephews."

building globally
Since our founding in 1984, we’ve worked to build safe, affordable homes here in Milwaukee and across the world, believing that distance does not play any role when we want to achieve the common goal of eliminating poverty housing.
In countries around the globe, families are living in desperate conditions. With your support, we’re partnering with Habitat for Humanity affiliates in other countries, donating 10% of our unrestricted funds to ensure even more families have a safe, decent place to sleep at night —a donation known as tithe.

In March of 2023, a team of Habitat staff and volunteers traveled to El Salvador to help a local family build their future home.
José, Ana, and their two sons Wilmer (21) and Axel (5) have been living in a shack that’s vulnerable to weather, earthquakes, and theft. The family runs a small business making rope where they make about $18 to $20 a day.
Our team, the El Salvador Habitat team, and José’s family and friends spent a week building a home out of cement blocks and hard work.
The family moved into their new home this past summer.

Sargento Raises First Walls on New Project
This past summer, Milwaukee Bucks forward Pat Connaughton joined Sargento employees on site to raise walls on the 36th and 37th homes sponsored by Sargento.
The high-flying Buck looked right at home swinging a hammer next to Sargento employees - many of whom have been coming back to volunteer for years. In fact, Sargento was Milwaukee Habitat’s first corporate sponsor in 1992.
Sophia, whose home is sponsored by Sargento, joined Pat and Sargento employees on the build site. She closed on her home last summer.
“Taking pride in my home, being able to pay a mortgage - it’s a dream come true,” Sophia said
Brewers All-Star Pitcher Helps Build Brand-New Home
In May of 2023, Brewers Community Foundation, the charitable arm of the Milwaukee Brewers, and Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation teamed up with Milwaukee Habitat to begin building a safe, affordable home in Milwaukee’s Harambee neighborhood. Brewers All-Star pitcher Brandon Woodruff joined the Famous Racing Sausages and local volunteers to help build the home. For more than 15 years, Brewers Community Foundation has partnered with Milwaukee Habitat to help local families break down the barriers to first-time homeownership.
Johnson Controls Announces $150,000 Grant and In-Kind Donations
In June of 2023, Johnson Controls announced a $150,000 grant from the Johnson Controls Foundation and in-kind donations from Johnson Controls valued at $400,000 in support of Milwaukee Habitat. The in-kind donation includes HVAC equipment, fire detection and suppression devices, smart thermostats, security systems, and more for 90 new homes being built for local families.
2023 Sargento Build Week
Sargento employees spent a week on site this past summer building two brand-new homes for Milwaukee families.
Why I Volunteer, from Komatsu
Komatsu employees share why they volunteer with Milwaukee Habitat and the impact they are making for local families.
Accunet sponsored a new home for the seventh consecutive year through their $75,000 Framing the Future Gala Challenge match. Persephone always wanted to own her own home. With Accunet’s help she is putting down roots in the Harambee neighborhood. “I’ll be more at peace,” she said. “I’ll be able to have family over, to have my gardens. I’ll have something that will be my own.”
Bader’s $1 million gift helped build 40 new homes in Harambee from 2020-2023. Malik - the proud father of two boys - was in search of a home where his sons can grow and prosper. With Bader’s support, he is building a home where his children can have cherished memories. “They’ll be able to have the space to run and enjoy the fresh air,” Malik said.
Friendship House’s financial support has helped build, rehab, and repair 40 homes since 2012, including a new home for LaQuanta. She is excited to provide her two children with more room to be themselves. LaQuanta plans to transform the basement into a place for her kids - particularly her son, who plays the drums. “I think they are even more excited than I am,” she said.
Twenty-eight families have moved into new Habitat homes built by Komatsu - our largest annual corporate partner - since 2011. Total support tops $2.5 million from employee giving, a company match, and an annual supplier golf outing. “It’s nothing but peace and achievement,” Keenan said of his Komatsu-sponsored home. “A weight off my shoulders knowing that my son will have a place to call home.”
MGIC has partnered with Milwaukee Habitat for 26 years, donating over $500,000. The company loyally supports the Framing the Future Gala and has sponsored eight Habitat homes since 2016. Abraham is one of those homeowners. “First-time home buyers take pride in their homes,” Abraham said. “That’s what changes the neighborhood.”
Milwaukee Tool sponsored Shirley’s house and donated construction site and warehouse tools. Shirley said, “my heart did a happy dance” when she was approved to purchase her Habitat home. “This home gives me privacy, peace, and a new lease on life,” she said. “It’ll be somewhere my grandkids can play outside. I have 11 of them.”
A $100,000 grant from the Otto Bremer Trust funded new construction and critical repairs. The opportunity to build a brand new home was exactly what Aquaries was looking for. The prospect of getting to participate in the construction was even more enticing. “I actually get to learn how to do stuff,” she said. “My son will be able to say, ‘My mom built this house.’”
Wells Fargo has donated $1.4 million over the past two decades to help homeowners achieve strength and stability through homeownership. The bank’s $100,000 donation supported Priscilla’s dream to own a home of her own. “It is a great source of pride to have my own home and land I can pass down,” Priscilla said. “It means freedom and autonomy. It means stability for my daughter so that she can focus on school.”
Milwaukee Habitat
Women Build
Nearly 100 women representing 14 teams volunteered during the month of August to help Habitat homeowners rise
strong. Together, they raised over $50,000 to help sponsor Shirron’s new home in the Harambee neighborhood. Shirron appreciates being involved in the building process. “It’s a great opportunity to build friendships. Plus, I’ll be able to tell my kids, ‘I helped build those cabinets.’”
gala
$465k raised at 2023 gala
On October 12, 2023, Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity hosted the annual Framing the Future Gala from inside our early 20th century woodshop. The event, which welcomed over 325 attendees, raised $465,000 to build safe, affordable housing in our city.
Framing the Future Gala, presented by BMO Harris Bank, is Milwaukee Habitat’s largest annual fundraiser. This year’s event was chaired by MGIC’s CHRO, Annette Adams. The funds raised are crucial to Milwaukee Habitat’s work to help local families break down the barriers to first-time homeownership.

Presbyterian Coalition
Dedicated members of Presbyterian congregations have supported Milwaukee Habitat’s mission since our founding in 1984. In 1997, a group of Presbyterian congregations came together to raise walls, funds, and prayers by sponsoring the first brand-new Presbyterian Coalition home for Habitat homeowner Debra Torrence. In 2023, the Presbyterian Coalition sponsored their 25th brand-new home for Kenisha and surpassed $1,000,000 in total funds contributed to Milwaukee Habitat!

TeamUp
Milwaukee Habitat is one of ten Habitat affiliates selected to participate in the national TeamUp Pilot Cohort facilitated by Interfaith America, along with ten YMCAs and ten Catholic Charities. We are uniquely positioned to bring diverse groups of people together in Milwaukee.
