our mission
Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope.
family focus
Lakeland Habitat for Humanity is committed to the development of decent, affordable housing. We work with businesses, churches and organizations in Lakeland and surrounding communities to ensure that the experience of long-term home ownership is achieved for our homeowners, low-income elderly and Veterans.
Recently our focus has moved from building to our Home Repair Program with its focus on our Veterans, elderly and low-income homeowners who are living in unsafe housing. This came about with COVID and inflation resulting in cost and availability of building supplies.
Our Home Repair Program can help families who are struggling to maintain their home due to age, disability or family circumstances. The program focuses on existing structures with interior or exterior work performed to alleviate critical health, life and safety issues or code violations. The repairs could be leaky roofs, broken windows, plumbing problems, and other small, critically needed home repairs.
Habitat for Humanity Home Build & Dedication 2020-2021
We’re renovating a mobile home for a disabled Veteran. This Veteran was shopping at the ReStore and met Claire Twomey, CEO. When she learned of his story of trying to make a home for his family, Claire encouraged him to apply for assistance through our Veterans Home Repair Program. He qualified for a $20,000 grant from Lowe’s, and Habitat volunteers have joined to work on this project. The location is North Lakeland.
Days of work are Mon., Wed., Fri., and Sat. Hours of work begin at 8:00 am. If you would like to schedule a day or if you have a group, call Dallas Powell at 863 660-7810. If you would like to donate to this project, please click button below. <read more>
