Habitat for Humanity of Monmouth County - (732) 728-0441

Building Homes. Building Hope.

Who We Are:

Since 1989, the dedicated volunteers of the Habitat for Humanity of Monmouth County serving Northeast and Western Monmouth County (HFHMC) have been building and repairing homes to provide decent, affordable housing to income eligible families in Monmouth County. To date, the organization has built 42 homes. Since Sandy, the organization has helped over 90 affected families with home repairs and will continue to focus on critical home repair to eligible homeowners through the next several months.

What We Do:

In addition to our homebuilding initiative, our affiliate participates in A Brush With Kindness (ABWK), Home Repair Program (HRP) and Critical Home Repair programs. Our volunteer corps review applications, schedule projects and do almost all physical repairs of these homes.

How We Do It:

We rely on an extensive range of partners to complete our work. From securing donated materials to recruiting skilled volunteers to fundraising. All of our work is interconnected with a wide network of community partners. Our volunteers are the heart of our work, they dedicate hours to our faith-based mission and help get families back into their homes. However sometimes our volunteers are also our homeowners – all those receiving assistance participate in “sweat” equity to help in the completion of the repairs to their homes.
