A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE HAS A DECENT PLACE TO LIVE
Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity – DeKalb brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope. Habitat for Humanity – DeKalb is an official Georgia county affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a global nonprofit housing and community development organization. Incorporated in 1988 at the behest of former DeKalb County CEO Manuel Maloof, HFHD has provided affordable homes for over 75 DeKalb County families and home repair services for over 200 seniors, Veterans, and/or disabled residents. The “hand-ups” provided throughout our affiliate’s 30 year history has resulted in an economic impact in excess of five million dollars for DeKalb County, building strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter.
OUR VISION
DECENT AND AFFORDABLE PLACE TO CALL HOME
We envision a world where everyone has a decent place to live. We seek to eliminate substandard housing and living conditions by partnering with God and people from all walks of life. Through this partnership, we can create a better environment for lower-income families as we strive to provide an opportunity to live in a decent and safe house in a community where they can live, work, and grow.
