Every gift helps a family build a foundation

With your financial support, we can build more prosperous and vibrant communities by making sure everyone has a safe, affordable place of their own

We need your support to build 20 homes for 20 families!

With your support, we are stepping up to meet the growing need in our community for safe, affordable homes, from building 2-3 houses a year to building multiple neighborhoods at a time.

Twenty families urgently need homes, and your help is needed to finish building these 20 houses.

• Cliff Street Cottages – construction is underway on 6 new homes. The first 3 families have moved in this winter! The final three homes will be ready this late winter and spring.
• Landes Terrace – foundations are being poured and walls are going up for 14 new homes. The first homeowners will move in by next summer

Double your impact!

Donate today and your tax-deductible donation will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000!

Become a Hope Builder with a monthly donation  

Hope Builders make monthly, automatic donations, making it easier for Habitat to plan long term, budget more efficiently, and create more life-changing outcomes. You choose how much to give and for how long, and you can change or cancel at any time. 

Give from your IRA 

If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA helps reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it!  

Give from your Donor Advised Fund 

A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is a charitable giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite causes. 

Donor-advised funds can easily be set up through our local Jefferson Community Foundation or your financial institution. If you already have a donor-advised fund that participates in DAF Direct, you can recommend grants to support Habitat for Humanity of East Jefferson County. 

Give stock 

Gifts of appreciated stock help build more homes for hardworking local families in our community. The IRS allows a charitable tax deduction for the full market value of the appreciated security. You can find more information here.

If you are interested in donating stock, please contact Liesl Slabaugh, Development Director, at 360-379-2827, ext. 802, or lslabaugh@habitatejc.org. 

Gifts-in-kind  

When businesses and individuals donate construction or professional services, land or other goods, Habitat can stretch its cash donations further, which means that more people can be helped with safe, affordable housing. If you would like to donate a gift-in-kind, please call 360-379-2827.

If you have land or a house you are interested in donating, we’d love to talk with you. For more information, please contact Executive Director Jamie Maciejewski at director@habitatejc.org or 360-379-2827.
