Description
Bend-Redmond Habitat is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International. In 1989, Les Alford and a group of like-minded individuals saw the urgent need for decent affordable housing for low income families. They established our local affiliate and developed an environment where volunteerism became the key to helping the disadvantaged, one home at a time.
In 2019, we proudly merged with Redmond Habitat for Humanity, thus officially becoming Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity.
Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity is part of a global, nonprofit housing organization operated on Christian principles that seeks to put God’s love into action by building homes, communities and hope. Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally and worldwide through constructing, rehabilitating and preserving homes; by advocating for fair and just housing policies; and by providing training and access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all.Reviews
