Habitat for Humanity Nova Scotia

Giving Nova Scotia families a hand up, not a handout.

At Habitat for Humanity Nova Scotia, we believe that everyone deserves decent, affordable housing. It is a small idea that is making a big difference!

We strive to bring volunteers and community partners together to help families in Nova Scotia break the cycle of poverty through home ownership. Join us to help change lives - one family at a time.

Building Homes. Building Hope. Building Community.

2011 in Review

Habitat for Humanity Nova Scotia sincerely thanks all the sponsors and volunteers who helped give the gift of a hand up, not a hand out, in 2011. Together, we build homes, hope and community and helped 4 Nova Scotia families achieve the dream of home ownership.

We'll be building again in 2012. Be part of the team. Watch for more details coming soon.
