Since 1982, Habitat for Humanity of Lee County has worked to provide safe, affordable housing
for struggling families. We have since provided homes for more than 800 families in Lee County.
We’re now the third largest affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International in North America. Discover
how Habitat families are selected and how donations are utilized. Hear from a Habitat Homeowner
Candidate (HOC) working through the program and learn what Habitat means to that family. You’ll
enjoy the tour of our extensive campus in North Fort Myers, where you will see the “behind the scenes” action of how Habitat homes are built. You’ll also see our Senior Housing Complex, a first-of-its-kind project for any Habitat affiliate to undertake. The attached villas provide 60 low-income senior families with a safe, decent, affordable place to call home. Longtime supporters and future supporters of Habitat will enjoy and benefit from this free one-hour session. All are welcome to attend. Please RSVP to 239.652.0434, ext. 1211 to reserve your seat.
