Welcome to Canyon County
Habitat for Humanity

Canyon County Habitat for Humanity is a locally run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing organization. Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with people in need to build, affordable housing. The houses then are sold to those in need at no profit and with no interest charged.

Volunteers provide most of the labor, and individual and corporate donors provide money and materials to build Habitat houses. Partner families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor - "sweat equity" - into building their homes and the homes of others. Their mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to build more houses.

There are more than 2,100 active affiliates in 92 countries, including all 50 states of the United States, the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico. Habitat invites people of all backgrounds, races and religions to build houses together in partnership with families in need.

Habitat for Humanity International was founded in 1976 by Millard Fuller. Over 150,000 home have been built. The average price of U.S. built homes is $46,000. The price of homes built outside of the U.S. varies from $800 to $5,000.

Habitat for Humanity of Idaho State Support movement was started when Pam Peterson from Palouse HfH and Verne Blalack from Silver Valley HfH attended an Habitat for Humanity International training session in 1995. There they became aware of the possibilities a State Organization could provide in resources development. As a result of this meeting 12 HfH affiliated organizations have been founded in Idaho.

The Canyon County HfH affiliate was founded in 1995. A total of 6 homes have been completed at an average sales price of $50,000.
