Homeownership

At Battle Creek Area Habitat for Humanity we believe it is a basic human right that everyone has access to safe, stable, and affordable housing. We want to help you build a better life for you and your family that will last generations. Side by side we will help you build a new home and help you learn the skills to become a successful homeowner. Becoming a homeowner is hard work but with some help from volunteers and donors, we can build a stronger future together. If you are interested, you can find the application here.

Ramps and Minor Home Repair

Battle Creek Area Habitat for Humanity’s minor home repair program helps low-income homeowners who struggle to maintain their homes, allowing them to reclaim their investment with pride and dignity. The program eliminates substandard housing through home improvement projects. For those that need safer and easier access to their home we also build wheelchair ramps.

Volunteers

As part of our commitment to building strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter, volunteering goes beyond construction. It fosters a deeper connection to the mission, encouraging community members to invest their time, skills, and energy into transforming lives. Additionally, volunteering builds teamwork, empathy, and a lasting sense of accomplishment.

Restore

The ReStore at Battle Creek Area Habitat for Humanity plays a vital role in supporting our mission to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. By offering gently used furniture, appliances, and building materials at affordable prices, the ReStore generates revenue that directly funds our housing programs.
