Habitat for Humanity East Bay

Developments

Habitat for Humanity is known throughout the world for its unique building model, in which volunteers work alongside the families who will own the completed homes. Habitat for Humanity East Bay has adapted the model to work in the Bay Area's complex urban building environment, and build to strict national Green building standards.

Current Developments

Habitat East Bay continues to build sustainable communities in Alameda and Contra Costa county with the support of volunteers from across the Bay Area.  Most of our developments are built in cluster format, but we also rehab existing properties when the opportunity arises.

Currently, we are building at Edes Avenue and Kinsell Commons at Tassafaronga in Oakland. We are also refurbishing foreclosed homes as a part of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program.

Green Building

Green Building is an important part of Habitat East Bay's mission to revitalize neighborhoods in a sustainable way.  We build green to respect the environment and protect the health of our partner families and volunteers.  Green Building is also a valuable tool in giving low-income families a hand-up in the fight again poverty.
