Habitat for Humanity

Safe and stable housing is fundamental to human dignity, yet many in our community continue to face housing insecurity. This Sunday, we welcome a guest speaker from Habitat for Humanity to share their mission and vision for creating permanent housing and fostering pathways to stability in Grants Pass. Since its founding in 1976, Habitat for Humanity International has worked in all 50 U.S. states and 79 countries, helping more than 59 million people secure safe, affordable shelter. Together, we will explore how sustainable housing transforms lives and how we can strengthen our partnership with an organization committed to upholding the inherent worth and dignity of all people—ensuring that every person has the foundation they need not just to survive, but to thrive.
