Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to giving families the opportunity to improve their future through home ownership.  We have a dedicated staff who manage our efforts, build homes for our families, work tirelessly with thousands of volunteers and qualify our partner families.

We provide a great work environment for employees with the right skill set who share our passion.  We often have job opportunities at our ReStore for construction and in our office.

We have a unique structure with strategically located Partnerships, groups of faith-based organizations and civic groups who take on the task of independently building homes.

Our vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live.

No matter who we are or where we come from, we all deserve to have a decent life. We deserve to feel strength and stability day after day. We deserve to know we have the power to take care of ourselves and build our own lives.

At Habitat for Humanity, our shared vision unites us.

Because we are all humans. And every single one of us deserves the opportunity for a better future.

Habitat for Humanity International Mission

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

Non-Proselytizing Policy

Habitat for Humanity of Northern Fox Valley will not proselytize, nor will we work with entities or individuals who insist on proselytizing as part of their work with Habitat. Habitat for Humanity of Northern Fox Valley will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must adhere to or convert to a particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.

Partnerships

Northern Fox Valley has three faith-based groups dedicated to helping implement the Habitat mission across our service area. There are many ways churches can partner with Habitat for Humanity and put God’s love into action. One of the best ways is for church members to serve together to help build a home. This tangible experience allows members of the congregation to live out their faith and love their neighbor.

Volunteering with Habitat not only deepens one’s own faith but increases strength and unity among the church community as they serve together. Volunteers are led by a Habitat site supervisor and no construction experience is required. Tools and safety equipment are provided. While volunteers do much of the construction, fully licensed and insured contractors are hired for roofing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC.

Based on Biblical principles, one of Habitat for Humanity’s core tenets is not charging interest on the loans we provide to the families who buy the homes. Exodus 22:25, says, “If you lend money to one of my people among you who is needy, do not be like a moneylender; charge him no interest.”
