We are an independent affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, serving both Riley and Pottawatomie counties and Geary County on a case-by-case basis. We develop our resources and funds to build affordable housing in our area through new construction, rehabilitation, neighborhood revitalization, home repair, and affordable housing advocacy. We are an HFH Aging in Place and a Veteran’s Affiliate and address/advocate for these issues. Our vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
Habitat homeownership contributes to healthier families, greater success in school, more economic opportunities for families, and revitalized neighborhoods. Habitat for Humanity of the Northern Flint Hills has worked with community partners for more than twenty-five years to help families on their homeownership journey. We have built over 30 homes in Riley and Pottawatomie counties and continue to grow. A home is more than four walls and a roof. It’s a place to rest, a place to learn, and a place that can shape your future.
We are driven by a simple vision; A world where everyone has a decent place to live.
No city is so well off that it can afford to squander a part of the next generation.
Our projects include new construction, rehabilitation, neighborhood revitalization, home repair, and affordable housing advocacy. We are an HFH Aging in Place and a Veteran’s Affiliate and address/advocate for these issues. Our vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
