Everyone deserves a decent place to live
Habitat for Humanity of Greater Dayton strives to create a world in which everyone has a decent place to live. This cannot be accomplished without support from our local community! Check out the ways you can support Dayton Habitat's mission below!
Supporting Habitat can look different for each individual.
Whether you are a student, local professional, or retiree, we have ways for you to help us build homes, communities, and hope.
Donate
Habitat for Humanity of Greater Dayton is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Our work would not be possible without financial support from our community. Your gifts help local families in Greene, Clark, & Montgomery counties.
Gift in Kind
As we seek to build safe, decent, energy-efficient homes, we are always in need of construction-related donations in the following areas:
Surveyors | Excavators | Block Layers | Concrete Flatwork | Drywall Finishers | Insulation Contractors | Landscaping | Roofing Contractors | Carpet Installers
These specialties require licensed professionals:
HVAC
Plumbing
Electrical
Volunteer
Volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization. Each home is constructed by local volunteers, and there is no experience necessary to help out! We also rely on volunteers to help at our three ReStore locations.
Advocate
We understand that volunteering or donating is not always possible, but sharing our mission is as easy as clicking a button. Follow us on social media and help us share our mission!
Looking to do more? We encourage you to share your support for Habitat for Humanity and housing with your local lawmakers!
Shop

Youth Opportunities

When families have a stable and affordable home, they can:
- Provide stability for their children
- Gain improved health, physical safety, and security
- Increase educational and job prospects
- Be engaged in their communities
Together, we build homes, communities, and hope!
