Sponsor a Home
Home sponsorships are critical to our mission. Our programs help to restore hope, break the cycle of poverty, build generational wealth, and ensure more children grow up in a stable, healthy home where they can truly thrive. Your sponsorship not only benefits a family in Lake County, but your team will strengthen their bonds while building on a construction site and knowing they are creating something tangible that will last for generations.
Your Generosity Will Make an Immediate Impact
Sponsorships are critical to our mission.

Habitat’s mission is to bring people together to build homes, communities, and hope and we achieve this by providing pathways to affordable homeownership. Habitat Lake County provides a 0% interest mortgage with a term adjusted to make monthly payments affordable for families. We work with every homebuyer to ensure they understand their mortgage forms, can access down payment assistance, and answer any questions about their closing. Habitat Lake County homebuyers contribute at least 500 hours of sweat equity as they prepare to purchase their homes. These hours of preparation include volunteering at build sites, working at our ReStore, and classes on financial literacy, understanding their mortgage, debt reduction and credit repair, home maintenance, and more.
Your investment will provide the necessary funds to continue to build new homes and support our Family Services department which facilitates mortgage services and homebuyer education.
By investing in people, we invest in opportunities to build a thriving Lake County.
