Primary Cause

Housing & Shelter

Secondary Cause

Community Improvement & Capacity Building

Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all. Habitat for Humanity Saint Louis is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally and works toward that goal with a comprehensive program in which hard-working St. Louis families invest their time into actually building and owning a home. HFHSL partner families are low to moderate income, approximately 25-50% of the St. Louis median. Through safe and affordable housing purchased through Habitat for Humanity Saint Louis, we can transform a community, strengthen the local economy, and ensure future generations have the opportunities they deserve.
