Three Habitat homes need volunteers to finish the exteriors—when can you help? We will work on trim and soffit in Ely on Thursday, October 15, then exterior and interior finishes on two homes in Virginia on Tuesday, October 20. If you like careful work and seeing the results at the end of the day, these jobs are for you.

Join us on one or both days from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. as we get the homes ready for winter. No tools or experience required!

Every hour on site helps a local family build and buy their own home. Email [email protected] or call 218-780-4594 to sign up and receive the addresses.

One of our construction partners puts the "truss" in "trust!" Kylmala Truss deeply discounts their trusses for our homes. The trusses support roofs, and the company supports our efforts to help families purchase affordable, well-built homes. Our staff and partner families have had the privilege of touring their manufacturing facility in Saginaw, MN.

The United Nations recognizes the first Monday of October World Habitat Day. Although this refers not to Habitat for Humanity but to the basic right of all people to adequate shelter, it aligns perfectly with our vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live! This is a glance at what Habitat has done globally and locally to help achieve that vision.

When it’s our mission to bring people together to build homes, communities and hope, it’s pretty special when the people gather together to recognize the impact of our work.

We were humbled to accept Laurentian Chamber of Commerce’s Nonprofit Of The Year award at last night’s Chamber Gala.

Our local business community is critical to our success in serving our neighbors. They have contributed time, talent and treasure to help our neighbors build and buy 135 homes in North St Louis County since 1995.

Our staff and board are blessed to display God’s love to our neighbors with you. THANK YOU! 🙏🏻 🏠🔨❤️😊

Future homeowners, like River and Justyne in Hibbing, contribute sweat equity hours on construction sites and in meetings with our staff and other partner families. They learn practical skills, understand how their homes are built, and receive homeowner education. A can-do attitude means more than construction ability, and fun photos are a bonus!

Just after our last construction kickoff event, it's time to dedicate the last home we began in 2025! Join us and Andrea Ross as we celebrate her new home in Buhl. If you've volunteered at this home or any Habitat home, if you've made a financial donation to Habitat, or if you just like what we do, you can meet the people who help make our mission happen and tour a home! We hope to see you in Buhl this Sunday at 2 p.m.

Another highlight of our week was the construction kickoff event in Hibbing, where we celebrated with Sarah and Jonathan, who are building adjacent homes that will be built by students from Hibbing High School, in addition to community volunteers. Minnesota North College students will install the homes' wiring.

We heard from Minnesota Sen. Robert Farnsworth, Kevin Steele of Iron Range Resources & Rehabilitation, HHS teacher AJ Abate, MN North instructor Steve Oberstar, Habitat staff, and Sarah and Jonathan.

We had a great time at the chili cook-off, and winning Taster’s Choice Runner Up was a bonus! Here are Nathan and Tim with Ferdinand and our new trophy. It’s so much fun to catch up with our friends, volunteers, business partners, donors, and other nonprofits!
