"We build and repair homes to
hard-working people in our communities."

About Us

Habitat for Humanity of Jackson, TN Area is a local nonprofit working alongside volunteers, donors, and community partners to help more people in our region access safe, affordable housing. We believe a stable home is the foundation for everything else—stronger families, healthier neighborhoods, and a community where everyone has the chance to thrive.

We do this through practical, people-first programs: building affordable homes, supporting first-time homebuyers, helping neighbors age safely in place through critical repairs and accessibility improvements, and funding our mission through the Habitat ReStore—where donated home goods are sold at affordable prices to support local housing work.

At the end of the day, we’re builders—of homes, of hope, and of a Jackson-area community where everyone belongs.

Aging-In-Place

Our Aging-in-Place Program helps eligible homeowners remain in the homes they love—safely, comfortably, and with dignity. As we age, everyday features like steps, slick surfaces, loose railings, or worn-out fixtures can become real barriers to independence. Many homes simply weren’t designed with long-term mobility and safety in mind.

ReStore

Our Habitat ReStore is a home improvement outlet with a mission. We sell new and gently used furniture, appliances, home décor, building materials, and more at affordable prices. Every purchase helps keep usable items out of the landfill and directly supports Habitat Jackson.

When you shop the ReStore, you’re not just finding a great deal—you’re helping fund local homebuilding, critical repairs, and programs that serve families and neighbors across our community.

New Homebuyer

Habitat’s New Homebuyers Program is an affordable path to homeownership—built on partnership. Qualified families complete homebuyer education, contribute partnership hours, and purchase their home with an affordable mortgage designed to keep payments within reach. We’re not just building homes—we’re building stability, opportunity, and stronger communities across Jackson and the surrounding area.

Habitat houses are modestly-sized. They are large enough for the homeowner family’s needs, but small enough to keep construction and maintenance costs to a minimum.

Habitat for Humanity uses quality, locally-available building materials. Habitat house designs reflect the local climate and culture of our communities we serve.
