Building houses in partnership with God's people in need - one home at a time. Serving the greater Bangor and Brewer area.

Originally founded in 1988, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Bangor, Inc. is a locally-run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a non-profit, ecumenical Christian housing organization. Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with local people in need to build decent, affordable housing. The houses are then sold to qualifying families at no profit and with no interest charged, allowing many to enjoy the pride and dignity of home-ownership. Without Habitat for Humanity's program, these families might not be able to own a home through traditional means.

Volunteers provide most of the labor, and individual and corporate donors provide money and materials to build Habitat houses. Partner families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor - "sweat equity" - into building their homes and the homes of others. Their interest-free mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to build more houses.

Our affiliate is presently under the new leadership of Mike Kellerman, a family man who strongly believes Habitat's mission of providing affordable housing for area families in need. Mike joined our Board about two years ago and has been very active on numerous fronts.

Many thanks to our current Board of Directors. They, alongside of our very competent volunteers too numerous to count, make Habitat for Humanity of Greater Bangor the caring organization it is today.
