Sussex County Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian organization. We are dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and homelessness and making adequate, affordable shelter a matter of conscience and action. Our ministry was founded on the conviction that every man, woman, and child should have a decent place to live in safety and dignity.
Building the hope in our community begins with you - by picking up a hammer or giving in other ways. As we grow to serve more households throughout Sussex County every year, there are more and more ways to get involved!
