Everyone Deserves a Decent Place to Live

With cooperation from people from all walks of life, Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity partners with families otherwise compressed out of the housing market to build and own affordable homes in safe communities.

More than a roof, we believe home is just the beginning—a strong foundation for vibrant communities, a stable financial future for generations, and a healthy place for children to grow.

As active participants in building a better future for themselves, and their families, Habitat homebuyers get a hand up, not a handout. In addition to making a minimal down payment and affordable mortgage payments, homeowner families are also required to invest at least 200 hours of sweat equity in building their own home and the homes of other Habitat families.
