About Lake-Geauga Habitat for Humanity
Lake-Geauga Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit organization building affordable housing in Lake and Geauga Counties, Ohio. We bring together volunteers, donors, and partner families to create safe, stable homes and stronger communities.
​
Our Mission
Driven by a vision where everyone has a decent place to live, Lake-Geauga Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope. We are guided by the mission of seeking to put God’s love into action by bringing people together to build homes, communities, and hope.
Here in Lake and Geauga Counties, we carry that mission forward by helping local families achieve strength, stability, and independence through affordable homeownership and critical home repairs.
​
How Habitat Works
Do you give houses away for free?
No—Lake-Geauga Habitat for Humanity partners with families to make homeownership possible. Homebuyers complete sweat equity (volunteer hours) and financial education, then purchase their homes with an affordable mortgage.
​
