About Us
Nevada County Habitat for Humanity was informally organized in mid 1995 by various community, government and church members to address the growing and recognized need for affordable housing in Nevada County . The organization was awarded "affiliate" status from Habitat for Humanity International in September of 1996 and shortly thereafter qualified as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation.

In the past years, Nevada County Habitat for Humanity has grown from a handful of concerned citizens to a grass roots organization with a 15 member governing Board of Directors, a roster of 25 Standing Committee Members and over 60 committed volunteers and 500 loyal financial donors, supporting our mission of providing simple decent and affordable homeownership for deserving local families.

To date we have completed fifteen homes, two in Penn Valley Gardens , six in Slate Creek Village , a subdivision in Grass Valley, one home in Eden Ranch of Nevada City, five homes on N. Church Ct. near downtown Grass Valley and the first of five on Ivy Street in Grass Valley. These self-help houses offer affordable homeownership for 21 adults and 50 children of qualified low-income families.
