Our Impact

  • While most well known for our construction program, Habitat DC-NOVA also provides home repairs and modifications for seniors in our region. These repairs allow seniors to age in place in their homes and communities.
  • Last year, we had 4,000 volunteers who served over 25,000 hours on our construction sites, ReStores, and other projects.
  • Habitat DC-NOVA operates three ReStores, discount home improvement stores and donation centers, in Alexandria, Chantilly, and Herndon. Funds raised at the ReStores help support DC & NOVA families in building stronger foundations for their future through affordable homeownership.
