If you are interested in partnering solely with your local Habitat office, you will need to contact them directly to discuss. If you are focused nationally, then yes – please reach out directly to [email protected] to explore. Please include details on the following:

• Type of item(s) being offered.
• Specific types/designs/models.
• Quantities.
• Associated value/MSRP.

Please indicate physical location of items as well as if pick up would be required or delivery would be provided. Please also clarify if these items were intended for use on a build site or if you would be open to donating them to our network of ReStores, which helps our local offices generate much-needed financial support to advance our mission.

A cash contribution is required to cover the cost of coordinating the team build day at the local level.

Yes, there are hard costs involved with providing your team with the opportunity to volunteer, including the cost of land, building supplies, safety equipment, and operational costs.

The volunteer experience represents value to our partners that want to showcase it as part of their broader corporate social responsibility strategy. Internally, there is morale building and improved retention for employees. Externally, partnership provides brand benefits through association with our well-recognized and trusted brand while using photos, stories and impact features from the build site to tell a compelling story about your support for Habitat. We very much appreciate our partners who truly collaborate on our mission.

With our federated network, each local Habitat is an independent entity operationally, legally and fiscally. Habitat for Humanity International is the organization which stewards the brand and guides the programming of Habitat at the global level. In other words, Habitat for Humanity International creates the blueprint, and each local Habitat brings the mission to life according to the needs and resources in their community.

We appreciate your interest and support of Habitat at any level or location. Your strategy and goals for engagement will determine the best approach:

One to two markets of engagement:

Please work directly with your local Habitat office.

Multi-market or national/global engagement:

Habitat for Humanity International has the tools and resources to bring a broad-scale national or global partnership to life.

• Dedicated teams can help with public relations and communications, grants management, impact reporting, local office Good Standing, advocacy, etc.
• A central point of contact can help you manage different Habitat programs across your portfolio of engagement.
• Partnership unlocks the privilege of universal Habitat name and logo usage with approval.

Without the local offices, there would be no Habitat. Our network touches families every day and brings our mission to life. We believe that successful partnerships with Habitat for Humanity International are built on close local relationships, which grow even stronger due to increased collaboration and alignment.
