Volunteers will continue to be hard at work for Door County Habitat for Humanity in 2024, you just will not see them building a new home for a deserving family.

The Door County Habitat for Humanity Board of Directors decided last week to forgo building a new home in 2024 after building two new homes in Door County and completing a major remodel in Algoma in recent years.  The rise in home construction costs and the lack of a partner family were why the organization will not build a new home this year. Out of the disappointment, Door County Habitat for Humanity Executive Director Lori Allen believes they have an opportunity to showcase the other ways they have an enormous impact on the community.

Allen adds that they will assist the Door County Housing Partnership in their efforts to build affordable homes in the Sister Bay area. The organization seeks volunteers to help with critical home repair, ramps, deconstruction, and ReStore operations.
