Who we are

Habitat for Humanity of Chattanooga partners with corporations, churches, civic groups, and individuals in the Chattanooga community to help them build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable, 0% interest mortgage. With your support, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability and independence they need to build a better life for themselves and for their families.
