You could be our next Partner Family
Are you tired of paying high rent and living paycheck to paycheck? Maybe it's time to build your own home.
Habitat wants to help you do that.
Habitat houses are NOT low-income housing. A Habitat home is an energy star rated highly efficient home built in partnership with a deserving family with a need for safe affordable housing and the demonstrated ability to pay an affordable mortgage.
If you are a working family that just doesn't make enough to save up a down payment or you may have struggled with credit or bills in the past Habitat may be able to help you.
Habitat is a hand up - NOT a hand out. We are a not for profit construction company with a mission to serve God's people through affordable housing. We are a partner driven organization that believes in financial responsibility and home maintenance education. We are here to help you to a new level of independence and financial freedom.
You deserve a safe affordable home to raise your family and the Habitat for Humanity Home Ownership Program is here to give you a head start.
We will help you build more than a home. We will help you build the future you have dreamed of.
Contact us today to find out how to become our next Partner Family!!

WE BUILD! COME JOIN US!
Montcalm County Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry dedicated to building safe, and affordable housing for economically disadvantaged families in Montcalm County.
Since 1991 we have partnered with a broad coalition of individuals, churches and businesses to build 19 homes and complete countless "critical repair" projects in Montcalm County.
The Need in Our Community
For many hard-working families in Montcalm County, the dream of home ownership seems unattainable. Roughly 18% of people in our county live below the poverty level. This is more than 13% higher than the state average. Montcalm County Habitat for Humanity empowers families by making the dream of home ownership a reality. This is how we serve God, build hope and break the cycle of poverty in our community.
Who We Serve
Our Partner Families are first-time home buyers, seniors, handicapped residents and veterans, who earn between 30-60% of the HUD area median income (AMI) and who are currently living in unsafe, dilapidated, or unaffordable housing. Homeowners are selected based on their need for housing, their ability to pay a no interest mortgage, and their willingness to partner with Habitat to work on their own home and those of others. We seek to empower families by providing economic opportunity, home owner education, log-term partnership, hands-on learning and the dignity of a hand-up, not a hand-out.
Montcalm County Habitat for Humanity is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Your donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
