Habitat for Humanity of Berks County is a 501 (c) 3 organization that provides a first-time home ownership program. Our vision of giving a “hand up” rather than a “hand out” has helped many families in Berks county achieve their dreams of owning a home. Recent success stories include 140 Oley Street, a house remodeled by Habitat, which has been occupied by the De La Paz family since June. Current projects include 638, 648, and 666 Tulpehocken Street, and future endeavors include the Buttonwood Gateway project.

I wanted to thank you again for the opportunity you have created for our kids.  This experience is more than the TV show.  Eight students who probably never would have talked to each other were excited to execute a plan. Know that you make a difference.
