New York City Habitat for Humanity, Inc.

Founded in 1984 as an independent affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, Habitat NYC and Westchester has served more than 2,400 families in the five boroughs through home construction and preservation, beginning with our very first build on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, during the first-ever Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project. Since then, Habitat NYC and Westchester has brought together thousands of New Yorkers each year who become part of the solution to closing New York’s racial homeownership gap.
