Welcome to Habitat for Humanity DeKalb, GA

A DeKalb County where everyone has a home that provides the strength, stability and independence that families need.

Habitat for Humanity DeKalb (GA) is a nonprofit housing organization that seeks to bring communities together through building and repairing homes, providing homeownership education, and advocating for affordable housing.

We do not give away houses. Habitat homeowners pay an affordable mortgage, receive financial education, and help build their homes alongside volunteers. We also repair and modify homes for older adults in DeKalb county. Habitat for Humanity DeKalb’s vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live.

Since 1988
