Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit Christian organization dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and homelessness in Franklin County. Habitat was founded in the belief that every man, woman, and child should have a simple, decent, and affordable place to live where they may dwell in dignity and safety.

We have taken great strides in empowering our small affiliate to truly begin to tackle a serious problem in Franklin County. Right now, hundreds of hard-working families are living in substandard housing with little or no hope of change. Of those 7800 people living in poverty, almost 30% are children.
