Chicagoland Habitat for Humanity helps raise awareness, supports capacity building, and provides resources to empower Habitat affiliates while they are on the ground making a difference in their local communities.

Illinois Housing Development Authority Awards $2 Million to Habitat for Humanity to Expand Homeownership Opportunities

The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) allocated $2 million to Habitat for Humanity of Illinois (HFHIL) to administer a new round of the Community Impact Fund, a program that helps working families, especially in Central and Southern Illinois, buy a home. The program is expected to create 100 new homeowners across Illinois.

Save The Dates!

Chicagoland Habitat hosts three events each year to raise funding and visibility for Habitat’s mission in this area: a regional Veterans Build (November 7-8), a black-tie reception through First Look for Charity (February 6, 2026) at the Auto Show, and an annual Habitat Hero Award Dinner (June 9, 2026).
