Habitat for Humanity Ireland

Habitat for Humanity does not build houses for people, it builds with them. We work together with homeowners and volunteers to construct, renovate, or refurbish homes using donations of money, land and materials. Once completed houses are sold to partner families at below market cost, providing a hand up rather than a hand out.

At the core of Habitat’s mission is the conviction that access to affordable shelter is a basic human right. We are committed to working with people of all backgrounds, races and religions in the fight against poverty.

Habitat for Humanity Ireland was founded in 2002 and has developed programmes in a number of areas including Local Programme, Global Village Programmme, and Orphans and Vulnerable Children Programme.
