Get Involved

Manistee County Habitat for Humanity is more than swinging a hammer; it takes planning, fundraising and loads of hard work to build a house. We need people like you to make that happen! No matter what your skill set is, there is an opportunity for you to help a family. 

As always, financial help is much appreciated. Manistee County HFH is a non-profit organization and relies heavily on donations from our supporters to fund our programs.
