Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County is creating homeownership opportunities for people and families with the help of this community. We’re building together because we believe that a community where everyone has a decent place to live is a matter of conscience and action. Come build with Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County!

Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County will host their fourth annual dine-and-dance fundraiser on Saturday, September 25, 2010.  Their Hammers & Heartstrings Ball takes place at the Don CeSar Beach Resort and Spa and benefits Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County and families waiting for their chance to build a better life.

Mission Statement
Putting faith into action, Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County promotes family stability by providing innovative and affordable housing solutions to qualified individuals and families. In partnership with our community, we work toward our ultimate goal of eliminating substandard housing throughout the county.

Volunteer
Get Involved in a Mission that Will Change Lives — Including YOURS!
What makes Habitat’s mission unique? You do! Volunteer opportunities make it possible for thousands of people to get active in our community and make a difference in the lives of children and families. Building a new home (or a remodel) takes time and money, but seeing a family get the keys to a home you helped build is inspiring. Come out and volunteer. Come make a difference.

If you are looking to help the environment, help build your community, meet new people, have fun, make a difference or earn community service hours, come volunteer at the Habitat ReStore, a non-profit retail outlet where new and gently used construction items, home improvement products and furniture are sold at discounted prices. Often people want to donate these things for use in Habitat homes. However, it is not practical, efficient or economical to try to adjust plans to accommodate most donated materials. The ReStore is Habitat’s solution for turning these donations, from environmentally concerned individuals and businesses, into money to build homes for families. Volunteers are needed to assist with off-loading donations, stocking the showroom, assisting customers and other administrative duties.

Building hope is about believing in a new day . . . in Paradise Found!
