Habitat for Humanity Santa Barbara


In Santa Barbara, one of the nation's most beautiful and affluent communities, many families live in unhealthy, overcrowded conditions due to the lack of affordable housing. And while many of us take decent, hazard-free shelter for granted, many families here long for a safe place to call home. With your help, Habitat for Humanity of Southern Santa Barbara County is making a difference in the lives of local families. 
Committee Spotlight
Family Partnership Committee

Family Partnership is the principal point of contact with current and prospective homeowner families. The committee works to provide a mutual support system to facilitate the transition to home ownership, including educational opportunities in home ownership and maintenance, family finance and community resources.

We are currently seeking  mentors for the four new families that will someday live in the homes we will build on San Pascual. Please email mail@sbhabitat.org.
Habitat for Humanity of Southern Santa Barbara County is a charitable non-profit organization dedicated to building simple, low-cost homes in partnership with low-income families in need of decent and affordable housing. We believe homeownership is a vital step to help families break the cycle of poverty and contributes to pride in families and communities. www.sbhabitat.org
