Thank you for your support!

📢 Big news: Habitat for Humanity Greater Boston has launched the Pope Leo Campaign — a new initiative inspired by Pope Leo's message that this is the "hour of love."

The campaign will directly support the construction of seven affordable homeownership units at 174-184 Norfolk Street, including one ADA-compliant unit at 6 Thetford Avenue in Dorchester.

"Greater Boston faces a relentless affordable housing crisis, and this is our opportunity to put love into action," says HFHGB President & CEO James Kostaras.

We're inviting Catholic schools, faith communities, and neighbors across the region to join us on the construction site. A volunteer build day will be announced soon — but you can start getting involved today by donating, fundraising, or signing up to volunteer.
