Homeownership Program

Current Builds
Explore this page to see what we're currently working on. Meet the Habitat Partner Families who will soon be purchasing a Habitat home! The home build process takes about four to six months from the moment we begin to dig the foundation to the day the home is dedicated. The Homeownership Program and family selection process take about 18-24 months to complete. Each of our Habitat Partner Families goes through the application and selection process to demonstrate that they need safe, decent, affordable housing, the ability to pay for the home mortgage, and the willingness to partner with Habitat. To learn about past Habitat families, please visit our Success Stories page!

 #129 - Donnie & Joua
DEDICATION ON JULY 25, 2022 - 4:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.

Picture
As a family of eight, Donnie, Joua their six children and grandmother live in a cramped three-bedroom, one-bathroom home.  The family came to Habitat for Humanity, completed the necessary steps to be approved for the Homeownership Program and are looking forward to owning a home and having more space. Donnie has dedicated himself to countless hours of sweat equity volunteering on his future home and the homes of other Habitat homebuyers. 
​I always work hard to try and save money to buy a home for my family. This is my big dream to buy a home for my family. Finally, my dream has come true because of the help from Habitat for Humanity. When we got our new home, we will make sure to maintain our home to look nice. My family is excited to see our new home soon. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for making our dream come true.

#130 - Jaki
DEDICATION ON JULY 26, 2022 - 4:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.

Jaki and her son live in an apartment that constantly presents problems to their health and wellbeing. The bathroom frequently has mold that needs to be cleaned out, the windows do no seal well due to mold and condensation, there is no safe place for Jaki's son to play, and there is very little privacy. Jaki is looking for a safe place to develop a strong family foundation and somewhere Jaki's son can be a kid, play, and be safe. 
The things that Kyrie and I look forward to as new homeowners is the security in knowing that we have a safe place to live and play. We are looking forward to a place that we can help build, invest our time and energy into making it a home perfect for us to grow happy in. We could not be more thankful for this opportunity. There are not enough words to explain the joy and happiness.

#131 - Carmen

Picture
As a family of four, Carmen and her three children live in a cramped two-bedroom apartment. Having three young children can be a challenge in an apartment because of noise and no room to play. The family is also exposed to unhealthy conditions in the apartment because of smoke leaking through the air ducts. Carmen looks forward to giving her children a higher quality of life and an opportunity to have a place of their own. 
​I consider myself hard-working, responsible, and a fighter. My three children are smart and very kind. Together, we create our dreams. As a homeowner, I hope to have peace of mind knowing that my children will have a stable roof and will have more freedom to play however they want. I also want to have a positive environment where they can anything.

#132 - Kia

After moving to Green Bay a few years ago to be closer to family, Kia and her four children live in an extremely cramped living space. Kia wants the stability and independence of homeownership and a house where her children can grow and a home that be passed along for generations. 
I moved to Green Bay looking for a new start and to be closer to family. What I'm looking forward to as a homeowner is the stability it will create, the memories we will make as a family, and being able to pass my home along to future generations. I want to be an inspiration to single mothers.

#134 - Chelsea

Picture
Currently living in a two-betroom home with her three children sharing one room, space is limited for Chelsea and her family. Working full-time and continuing education, Chelsea is extremely hardworking and deserving of decent, affordable homeownership. Chelsea and her family have a need for a home, and she's looking forward to a Habitat house so her children have a quite place to do homeowner and have personal space. 
I am a single mom of three amazing kids. I work as a family support specialist in the child welfare field and I'm also a full-time collage student. As a family, we work and learn how to be gentle and kind every day. My kids look forward to having more room and privacy and they've all voted on growing a garden at our future home. As a mother, it is my job to take on the world and learn everything along the way so that I can help my children navigate their lives. I am so excited to be able to learn to grow with Habitat for Humanity. 

#135 - Felix and Zulayka

As a family of six, Felix and Zulayka live in a three-bedroom home. The rooms are too small, the home is older and several family members have severe allergies and asthma in addition to other unsafe accommodations. A decent, affordable home is necessary for the family to find strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter. Felix and Zulayka need and deserve a house where they can feel safe and the kids can grow up in a healthy environment. 
As a family, we are very united, humble, responsible and very helpful. This, having a home, is something we've wanted for a very long time because we always had in mind to give our children a stable and safe place to live. We have no words to express how we will feel once we have a home of our own.

#136 - Rosa

Picture
For Rosa and her three children, living space is small and the environment is not ideal. Living in an older home, things do not work efficiently, summers are difficult with no air conditioning and windows that are unable to be opened. Rosa is working hard for her family to have a space with the children can have privacy and a healthy space to reside. Rosa has a deep faith with God and has prayed very hard for her family for this blessing that she has worked tirelessly for. 
I am a single mother, and I have always told my children that we are a team. I consider my family humble, simple, and we live modestly. I am working on my children's values and their education and I have told them that as long as we have God in our hearts, nothing bad will happen to us and that is all we need. I love being home with my children and being in God's home.
