About us

Serving Cherokee, Dawson, Forsyth And North Fulton Counties. Building Strength, Stability, And Self-Reliance Through Shelter.

Habitat for Humanity-North Central Georgia, a 501(c)3 Christian housing ministry, is an independently run and operated affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International covering North Metro Atlanta. Habitat for Humanity International was founded by Millard and Linda Fuller in 1976 in Americus, GA shortly after they returned from building homes in Africa. Since its founding, Habitat for Humanity has built over 1,000,000 homes around the world.

Mission

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

Vision

A world where everyone has a decent place to live.

Who We Are

As the increasing need for affordable housing appeared in the North Fulton area, a group of people banded together to come up with a solution for this problem. The first meeting of Habitat for Humanity-North Fulton took place at the Roswell United Methodist Church in May of 1992. With the help of Habitat for Humanity Atlanta and its skilled house leaders, the North Fulton group finished its first house on Thomas Drive on June 12, 1993. Two years later, the long road to affiliation led to the successful incorporation of Habitat for Humanity-North Fulton, Inc. in March 1995.

In January 2006, the affiliates in North Fulton, Cherokee, Forsyth, and Dawson Counties merged to form Habitat for Humanity-North Central Georgia in order to greater address the housing need in our growing community of Metro Atlanta. Today, Habitat for Humanity-North Central Georgia has built, rehabbed, and repaired more than 440 homes serving over 1600 individuals throughout our entire area. We look forward to providing even more families strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter for years to come!

Habitat for Humanity-North Central Georgia has an open-door policy: All who believe that everyone needs a decent, affordable place to live are welcome to help with the work, regardless of race, religion, age, gender, political views or any of the other distinctions that too often divide people.
