Welcome to Habitat for Humanity of Northern Fox Valley’s home page. We are a locally run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit, home building organization.
Our Mission
We build homes in the northern portion of Kane County for families in need who cannot qualify for a conventional mortgage. Our partner families work along side our volunteer labor force in the construction of their home. Once completed, the homes are sold to the family at no profit and the families are provided with a zero interest mortgage.
