What we do
Building homes, communities, and hope.
Habitat for Humanity of Minnesota is a state support organization for local Habitat offices around the state of Minnesota. We believe affordable housing plays a critical role in strong and stable communities.
Our History
In 1997, Habitat for Humanity of Minnesota was created as a financial intermediary for the local Habitat offices whose dedicated staff and volunteers were building and repairing homes across the state. Since then, Habitat Minnesota has grown to offer several other programs including training & technical assistance, public policy & advocacy, disaster recovery & response, and fundraising & lending.
Our Services
Habitat Minnesota offers several programs to the 24 Habitat offices in Minnesota, including training & technical assistance, public policy & advocacy, disaster recovery & response, and fundraising & lending.

Organizational Values
Homeownership Equity
Homeownership is a foundation for generational stability and healthy communities. Everyone deserves the opportunity to purchase a home and secure their family’s future.
Bold Leadership
We take courageous action to advance affordable homeownership, even when it is difficult. Trust is the foundation of our leadership—we act with integrity, transparency, and accountability.
Resilient Growth
As community needs evolve, so do we. We remain adaptable, creative, and committed to continuous learning—ensuring that both Habitat Minnesota and our network grow stronger, more effective, and more resilient.
Community Power
We believe in the abundance of ideas, resources, and relationships within our communities. We value local leaders and partners, and we amplify impact by working together in pursuit of our mission.
Systemic Change
We are more than homebuilders—we are advocates, problem-solvers, and changemakers. We work at all levels to advance policies, investments, and innovations that make homeownership accessible to everyone and drive transformational change in the housing system.
Mission
Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, community, and hope
Through advocacy, collaboration, and leadership, Habitat for Humanity of Minnesota advances the work of Minnesota’s local Habitat offices to create and preserve affordable homeownership.
Vision
A world where everyone has a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home.
Our Priorities
Develop and Maintain Key Capabilities
We’re investing in the tools and people that make this work possible. Over the next four years, Habitat Minnesota will expand shared services to boost efficiency and support professional development through technical certifications and training in energy-efficient construction.
Build More and Better Housing
We aim to improve housing conditions for 4,500 individuals through new construction, home repairs, and innovative housing solutions. Every affiliate will be supported to grow their production by at least 10%, backed by technical assistance and cutting-edge construction support.
Transform Housing Systems
Systemic barriers continue to limit access to homeownership. We will advance racial equity, empower affiliates in advocacy at all levels, and revise internal practices to eliminate barriers—especially for communities historically excluded from homeownership.
Inspire Action for Housing
We’re growing a movement. Our goal: 100,000 individuals engaged in housing advocacy. Through education, storytelling, and mobilization, we will connect housing to health, education, economic stability, and racial equity—and inspire our full community to take action.
990s
Habitat for Humanity of Minnesota seeks to educate the public and affiliates about best practices in nonprofit governance. The IRS requires all nonprofits to make their last three years of 990s accessible to the public. For more information, visit the IRS website here on what is required to be disclosed.
