Building Mission - Home by Home, where we are going |

Habitat for Humanity was founded on the simple idea that it is a simple human right to have a safe affordable home for yourself and your family. Every 15 minutes across the world that is made possible by volunteerism though Habitat for Humanity, and we are building more houses ever year. As a Campus Chapter, building offers a great escape from campus life, an easy way to learn new things, and a great way to meet new people. We are excited to be in partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Dane County and to be able to support a home every year locally. |
