Building simple, decent, affordable housing for local families in need

Who We Are...

Manhattan Habitat for Humanity became affiliated in Manhattan in 1994. A group of concerned citizens began meeting to solve the problem of inadequate housing in the Manhattan and Riley county area -- and Manhattan Habitat for Humanity was born!

In 2006, the Manhattan-Area Habitat for Humanity was born as the affiliate board of directors voted to expand services into all of Riley and Pottawatomie Counties!

Our Mission Statement

The Manhattan Area Habitat for Humanity, a Christian organization, in covenant with Habitat for Humanity International, seeks to establish a partnership between our community and God's people in need. Our purpose is to provide decent, affordable, and environmentally sound housing for those persons for whom such aspirations might otherwise be impossible. The Manhattan Area Habitat for Humanity recognizes the importance of providing participating families with an opportunity not only to improve their living conditions, but also to enhance their sense of self-worth, hope, and dignity through a partnership with a caring Christian community.
