We are one of over 1700 local affiliates of Habitat for Humanity International.  We are a non-profit, ecumenical Christian housing organization, committed to helping local residents who earn a low income to construct and finance their own affordable home. 

A partnership, not a giveaway program

Boise Valley Habitat for Humanity builds safe, simple, decent affordable housing in partnership with volunteers, donors, and sponsors. We work in partnership with families, who invest hundreds of hours of "sweat equity" labor into building their own homes and the homes of others. Affordability is acheivable because of the following:

• donated building materials
• discounts from major suppliers
• mostly volunteer labor
• homes are sold at cost and proceeds from Habitat mortgages are used to help build more homes

Founded in 1990, Boise Valley Habitat for Humanity has built 52 affordable homes in Ada County.  

Our Commitment

As an ecumenical Christian housing ministry, Habitat for Humanity International has displayed an unwavering commitment to the elimination of poverty housing worldwide. Boise Valley Habitat for Humanity was formed in 1990 as an affiliate of this international effort.

Our Vision

A decent, affordable home for everyone in Ada County.

Our Mission

To work in partnership with God and our community to provide decent, affordable homes to those in need, and to promote responsible homeownership.
