Lakes Area Habitat for Humanity

The housing shortage is hitting our communities hard, especially for those who keep our local economy running—the workforce. Many families, individuals, and essential workers in our area are struggling to find affordable, safe homes. The lack of housing options puts immense pressure on those already working hard to make ends meet, pushing them further from the stability they need to thrive. This isn't just a problem for those directly affected—it impacts our entire community.

At Lakes Area Habitat for Humanity, we believe that everyone deserves a decent place to live. Affordable housing builds a stronger, more resilient community by providing families with a foundation to grow, prosper, and contribute. By donating to us, you are directly addressing this critical housing shortage, helping local families find the stability they need, and empowering them to live where they work, close to schools, services, and support.

To build the homes our workforce needs, we rely on the generosity of people like you. It costs about $170,000 to build a Habitat home, with the help of volunteers and community support. But to make these homes truly affordable for families, we need additional funding. Your donations help cover the cost of materials, land, and labor that are not provided by volunteers. Every dollar you give moves us closer to completing another home and giving a family the opportunity for a fresh start.

This Give to the Max Day, we are asking for your help. We can't do it alone. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference. Whether you're giving $10 or $10,000, your donation is an investment in the future of our community. Help us bridge the gap and make affordable homeownership a reality for local families.

The solution to the housing crisis begins with all of us working together. Join us in making sure that everyone in our community has a place to call home. Donate today to support Lakes Area Habitat for Humanity and give our local workforce the homes they need to build a brighter future. Together, we can make it happen.
