Who We Are
Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity (GGBHFH), originally known as Northeast Wisconsin Habitat for Humanity (NEWHFH) is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI). As such, we follow the philosophy and operation guidelines setup by HFHI, but operate as a separate entity. Our affiliate is registered with the state of Wisconsin as a 501c(3) non-profit organization and is completely responsible for funding and building simple, decent and affordable homes in Brown County. GGBHFH is governed by a local board of directors who work closely with our Executive Director, Jeff Johnson to oversee a staff of four. Collectively, the board of directors and staff are responsible for family selection, fund-raising, public relations, site selection and construction, and family nurturing.
Our Mission
Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with God and people everywhere, from all walks of life, to develop communities with people in need by building and renovating houses, so that there are decent houses in decent communities in which every person can experience God’s love and can live and grow into all that God intends.
