Donate land or a house to rehabilitate

Habitat of Howard County is always looking for affordable land or homes to assist in their effort to offer affordable housing to families in need.

The lack of affordable housing solutions and/or land in Howard County is one of the single most significant hurdles that Howard Habitat faces.  

Donate in-kind services or materials

The donation of construction and other professional services as well as new building materials reduces the amount of funds needed to raise.

Donate Money

A typical Habitat house will cost over $150,000 for land and construction.  Please visit our website www.howardhabitat.org for details on our Home Sponsorship program for businesses, Churches, or other organizations  or for details on our individual giving program.  

Please consider making a donation of any denomination. You can mail you tax-deductible donation to:

Habitat for Humuminty of Howard County, Inc.
PO Box 56
Columbia, MD 21045

Donations may also be made by VISA or MasterCard on our website or via phone
