Welcome to Habitat for Humanity’s (HFH) Kankakee County website. This page will
give some basic background information on Habitat for Humanity and its’ origins.
Habitat for Humanity (HFH) International is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian
organization dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and homelessness
worldwide and to making adequate, affordable shelter a matter of conscience and
action. Habitat is founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should
have a decent, affordable place to live in dignity and safety.
There is an open door policy and all who desire to be a part of this work are welcome
regardless of religious background or preference. HFH has always built with people in
need regardless of race or religion and welcome volunteers and supporters from all
backgrounds.
We are driven by the desire to give tangible expression to the love of God through the
work of eliminating poverty housing. HFH mission and methods are predominantly
derived from a few key theological concepts: the necessity of putting faith into action,
the “economics of Jesus” and the “theology of the hammer”. You can read more at
