Full-time

Helena Area Habitat for Humanity is an organization dedicated to building affordable decent, and safe, housing units as well as performing critical repairs on existing homes when needed. In operation since 1992, the organization will build 16 homes in the next 12 months. Although our main operations focus on the Helena area, we are currently running a pilot rural housing program in Red Lodge, MT, and have plans to expand this program to other rural communities throughout the state where there isn’t a local Habitat for Humanity organization.

In addition to our construction operations, Helena Habitat also operates a ReStore which sells gently used home improvement and construction items to the community at affordable prices. The ReStore also accepts used furniture. The ReStore is a sustainable alternative solution for the disposal of used or surplus products, keeping those materials out of the landfill. The revenue generated from the ReStore serves as a funding source for our homeownership and repair programs.

Overall, the traditional Habitat model of building one home every 12-18 months for one family is no longer adequate to address the growing housing crisis in Montana. As such, Helena Area Habitat for Humanity has committed to an aggressive program of builds both in the greater Helena area and in neighboring rural areas. By 2030, the organization aims to be building at least 30 homes a year, inclusive of single-family homes, condos and townhouses.
