We are one of numerous Habitat affiliates operating in Canada. Our mission is “to empower lower income, working families to build strength, stability, and independence by providing affordable housing that enables financial equity and lasting change.” Our housing model fills an important gap in the housing continuum – it provides a “pathway to home ownership.” By providing families with access to equity-generating affordable housing options, Habitat is making vital efforts to help combat the housing crisis in Canada.

  • Help plan and facilitate on-site volunteer days, corporate builds, and partnership events
  • Act as an ambassador for Habitat for Humanity Halton–Mississauga–Dufferin, representing the
    organization’s mission and impact to partners and the community
