About Habitat
1 in every 8 families in Canada must choose between paying rent or buying food. We firmly believe that our homeownership plan is one of the best ways to break the cycle of poverty ensuring that no one has to choose between shelter or food.
We envision a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live. At Habitat we provide “a hand up, not a handout”, All families are required to put in 500 hours of sweat equity, working side by side with volunteers to construct their own home, assisting on other builds or helping out in our ReStore or Office.
Since 1994, Habitat for Humanity of Thunder Bay has been building homes and hope for families in need by providing affordable housing in the community of Thunder Bay. To date, 39 families and numerous children have been served through our homeownership program, and 30 new homes have been constructed in the city.
