Our History

Wilkes Habitat for Humanity was chartered as an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International in 1992. As a Christian housing ministry serving Wilkes County, Wilkes Habitat for Humanity has completed 21 homes, with and additional 3 homes under construction. Habitat for Humanity homes are built using volunteer labor along with sweat equity from homebuyer families to keep construction costs low. Qualifying families purchase the completed homes and repay Habitat with a zero interest mortgage.
