Housatonic Habitat
for Humanity
AT HOUSATONIC HABITAT FOR HUMANITY, WE BELIEVE HOMEOWNERSHIP IS MORE THAN JUST THE HOUSES WE BUILD.
It’s about providing financial stability and improving the quality of life in the greater Danbury area. Affordable housing not only attracts families and individuals but also fosters economic and civic growth within our communities. Our mission is to offer everyone the opportunity to live in simple, decent homes they can afford and maintain. We achieve this by constructing homes with the help of volunteers and materials donated by local businesses. These homes are then sold below market value, with affordable mortgages, to hard-working families who qualify.

“This home has given me and my family a sense of stability and security. We’ve been able to settle into our community and start building roots. Overall, owning a Habitat home has helped me achieve my goal of providing a stable and secure environment for my family, and has given me a sense of pride and accomplishment that I never thought was possible.”
