For 38 years South Shore Habitat for Humanity has been helping individuals build and improve a place to call home.

An affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, South Shore Habitat shares its vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live, and we are proud to be doing this important work locally. 


Since our founding in 1986, South Shore Habitat has worked alongside family partners and thousands of volunteers to build 65 affordable homes in 22 communities for 119 adults and 219 children.


In September 2022, South Shore Habitat expanded its programs to include a Critical Home Repair program. This program helps qualified seniors and veterans who are struggling to maintain their home, focusing on repairs that address health, safety and code issues.


It is thanks to the support we receive from our generous donors, devoted volunteers, corporations, foundations, and local communities that we can build homes and change lives.
