We are a Michigan charitable nonprofit organization dedicated to building simple low-cost homes by forming partnerships with low-income families in need of decent and affordable housing. We believe homeownership is a vital step to help families break the cycle of poverty and contributes to pride in families and communities.
At Macomb County Habitat for Humanity, we offer a hand up, rather than a hand out. Through our volunteer network, generous donors, and sales from our Habitat ReStore, we’re helping families achieve the strength, stability, and self-reliance they need to build a better life.
