Every Number Has a Story

Umpqua Valley Habitat for Humanity was incorporated on May 9, 1996 by a group of local volunteers who saw what other Habitat affiliates were able to accomplish for families in need across the country and came together to put this affordable housing model to work in our communities here in central Douglas County, Oregon.

"Habitat's help is a huge blessing - it means a new start. I was homeless for a while, sleeping in the streets of LA and I had cancer and heart disease. Habitat worked with my health insurance company and has done more than I ever expected."
