When Habitat for Humanity International was originally founded in 1976 by farmers in Americus, Georgia, an innovative concept was born – providing partnership housing focused on people in need of adequate shelter. With the collaboration of skilled volunteers and the sweat equity of the homebuyer; decent, affordable homes would be built to elevate entire families from poverty and improve communities.
Greater Fox Cities Area Habitat for Humanity started serving families through new home construction in 1993. Since then, our services have expanded to include home repairs, Rock the Block events, Almost Home guidance and our Appleton Habitat ReStore.
