Our vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live. No matter who we are or where we come from, we all deserve to have a decent life. We deserve to feel strength and stability day after day. We deserve to know we have the power to take care of ourselves and build our own lives. At Habitat for Humanity, our shared vision unites us. Because we are all humans. And every single one of us deserves the opportunity for a better future. Habitat for Humanity International Mission: Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

What We Do

Habitat for Humanity of Northern Fox Valley is dedicated to giving families the opportunity to improve their future through home ownership. We have a dedicated staff who manage our efforts, build homes for our families, work tirelessly with thousands of volunteers and qualify our partner families. At Habitat NFV we build and repair homes for community members in need. Habitat homeowners build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. With our help, homeowners achieve the independence they need to build a better life for themselves and their families. We also have 2 ReStore locations (Arlington Heights & Elgin) that sell new and used furniture, alliances, tools, and more to fun the construction of new houses. Our Build Days are Wednesday, Friday, & Saturday from 8:30-4. Individuals can sign up to volunteer anytime after creating a volunteer profile here: https://www.volunteerup.com/login.asp?o=2&w=i Individuals interested in becoming ReStore volunteers should connect with their Volunteer Coordinator volunteer@restoreelgin.org to complete an orientation and start volunteering. Teams of 10 or less should reserve their volunteer day by connecting with the Affiliate Volunteer Coordinator volunteer@habitatnfv.org
