Habitat for Humanity Sudbury District is a community based, non-profit, faith-based organization working for a world where everyone has a safe and healthy place to live. Our mission is to mobilize volunteers and community partners in building affordable housing and promoting homeownership as a means of breaking the cycle of poverty. With Habitat we build more than just houses. We build families, communities and hope.

Robert Delaire, so the tears flowed freely when they learned Nicole and
her children will have a home built for them by Habitat for Humanity
Sudbury District.
Mention the Greater Sudbury Habitat for Humanity ReStore,
and images of used doors, windows and sinks usually come to mind.
By Canadian standards, they won't seem like much. But the 193-square-foot homes a group
of Confederation Secondary School students, teachers and a volunteer parent will
build in Chile next month will change lives.
