How to Support NWHCHOW TO SUPPORT HABITAT There are many ways you can partner with Habitat Northwest Harris County to build communities for families in need. Habitat for Humanity can only operate due to the generosity of our supporters who share our belief that every family should have a decent place in which to live.
CASH DONATIONS: For $5.00 you can provide a box of nails and for $50,000 you can sponsor an entire house. Every dollar helps us provide decent housing for our neighbors in need. There are several easy ways to financially support Habitat NWHC:
VOLUNTEER: Last year over 2,500 volunteers helped us carry out our mission at our build sites, on committees, in the office or at our resale shop. For detailed information about how to get involved as a volunteer please refer to the Volunteers section of this web site.
LAND/PROPERTY: One of the most critical shortages we face is land. Land donation may support our mission in one of two ways. First, if the land meets specific criteria Habitat NWHC may build on this site. Second, if the land cannot be used as a build site, it can be sold with the profits going toward building materials. If you have land that you would consider donating please contact our Development Director at the affiliate office.
GIFTS-IN-KIND: These are either materials or services, to be used for a build site, our ReStore, or in our office. Call our Development Director to discuss how we might best use your contribution.
VEHICLES: If you have a car, boat, truck, or RV you are planning to donate, please consider the Habitat ‘Cars For Homes’ program. The proceeds will help a wonderful cause and you will receive a tax deduction within the limits of the IRS code. For more information call 1-877-277-4344 or go on line at www.carsforhomes.org. Proceeds will go to your local Habitat affiliate.
If you have questions or suggestions, please contact Habitat NWHC’s Development Director, Note: Habitat for Humanity - Northwest Harris County is a registered 501(C)(3) non-profit organization. All contributions are tax deductible.
