About
Habitat for Humanity is an international nonprofit organization founded to help alleviate housing insecurity by building affordable homes and strong, safe, and stable communities. Our UCLA chapter works with Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles and Homes4Families to help create these communities around the LA area, targeting the homeless veteran demographic.
We help homeless/housing insecure veterans by organizing biweekly build days that consist of traveling to a ‘build site’ where UCLA student volunteers will assist in tasks essential to forming the neighborhood. These various tasks include installing windows, digging pipeline trenches, and even mixing and pouring concrete.
We also help at Habitat Re:Stores where we help sort donations of furniture and supplies from individuals and companies to sell to the public at a fraction of the retail price. Thus, diverting reusable household items from landfills, and further funding Habitat construction projects.
