Repair Projects Fall Into Three Main Categories

Aging-in-Place

Aging-in-place projects serve low-income seniors to improve home safety and accessibility. In 2022, we partnered with Silver Key Senior Services in an initiative called the Senior Modification Program. This program is made possible in part with generous funding through the Myron Stratton Foundation.

Here's what our clients say!

They leave your house cleaner than when they showed up.... Words can’t express how thankful we are.

Alice

I had a catastrophic plumbing failure for which I could not afford the repairs. Habitat worked quickly with me and the repair company to get it fixed and return my home to working order in just a couple days.

John

The people who came were great! I enjoyed talking with them, and I learned a great deal. They worked very hard and the job was completed with great craftsmanship.  This was such a positive experience. I hope you can continue to help seniors stay in their homes and keep them safe.

Patricia

The application process was clear and easy to understand and went smoothly.

Everyone was so respectful and kind. And the quality of the work is excellent!

I love it! It feels so wonderful and I am so grateful.

Shan

It was wonderful to work with kind-hearted people who are so skilled.

I feel safe, free, and honored.

Habitat for Humanity let me stay independent instead of being relegated to an assisted living facility.

Jill

I found the crew to be helpful and doing a good job—a helping hand with a smile.

Shirley

I definitely appreciated your time and thoughts. They were all respectful and people I would adopt as part of my family…people I/we would want to spend time with.
