Morgan County MO Habitat for Humanity

Habitat is wanting to put on a Potential Homeowner Information event in the next few months. We are needing a few volunteers to help plan, organize, and publicize the event. Please send us a message if you are interested in helping!

Please join us in welcoming our newest board member, Dylan Earnest! If you are interested in serving your community through Habitat for Humanity, as a volunteer, on a committee, or on the board, please contact us here, we would love to get you plugged in!

Thank you helpers!! I'm sorry Shawn! I apparently missed you. You were awesome too!

Here is some info on income requirements to be considered for a home from Habitat for Humanity. Equal Opportunity Lender, homes are @ zero interest, and at cost.

We had a great & productive workday at our latest project in Stover. Our task today was to remove appliances, furniture left from the last occupants, carpet, padding, doors, back deck, trim & drywall. We completely filled the roll off dumpster, and will have another workday this coming Saturday, February 4th @ 9am to load the new dumpster with what remains. We are excited to begin seeking partner families for this 3 bedroom home, and to provide another Morgan Co family a new home. If you know of someone interested in a "hand up, not a hand out" that may qualify for our zero interest, at cost housing program, please send them to us. Thank you!!

Habitat for Humanity Morgan County Workday this Saturday from 9am to 3pm, please let us know if you are interested in volunteering!
