Housing can powerfully affect a child's ability to thrive: Studies show that kids who live in safe, affordable homes are healthier and happier and do better in school.


Lower housing costs mean people can invest more in education: In 2015, researchers found that almost two-thirds of Habitat homeowners with children in Minnesota felt more confident about their ability to fund college for their kids.


A safe place to live can significantly impact a family's health: According to the World Health Organization, families without decent housing face more significant personal and environmental risks, are less nourished, and have less access to health care.


Habitat's work has long-term effects on family's economic opportunities: Habitat homeowners report they can better pay bills on time, build savings and invest in education and small businesses.


Your gift to Rice County Habitat for Humanity will go directly to support homeownership opportunities for local families who are vital to our community. They are factory workers, day care providers and care givers to our seniors. They want what we all want, a place of their own to call home. A place where dreams can be inspired and lives can be transformed!
