Build a World Where Everyone Has a Safe Place to Call Home

Families challenged by poverty, disasters, and conflict often face dire housing situations as they struggle to rebuild their lives. Today, more than 800 million people worldwide live in slums. Millions of them are children, and many more are entirely homeless. Lack of clean water and sanitation claim the lives of more than 1.8 million young children every year.

We believe in a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live.

Access to decent housing opens the door to a better and more stable future for families and children. Building homes does more than put a roof overhead — it provides safety and security, offers children a space to study, improves the health and well-being of families, and provides livelihood opportunities and the basis for breaking the cycle of poverty.

We need your help to give families and children more access to safe, affordable housing. Sign your name and support Habitat for Humanity's vision: A world where everyone has a safe place to call home.
