Thank you for your interest in Habitat for Humanity of Orange County. We take seriously our responsibility to contributors, to those counting on our help, and to God, to be wise stewards of funds entrusted to us. Please know that each gift helps a family in need of decent shelter. Habitat functions solely upon the donations provided them by individuals, churches, businesses, cities, and civic groups. You can donate:
- money
- giving clubs
- a gift in someone's name
- construction and home improvement materials
- Cars for Homes™
- stocks and other assets

Money
Like any charitable organization, Habitat needs financial donations. This money helps us purchase land, supplies, equipment and any labor that isn't donated. All donations are tax deductible.
We gladly accept donations of any amount. Very Large Donations should be directed to our Vice President of Development who can be reached at (714) 434-6200, extension 232. Please ask about special programs that recognize our most generous benefactors.
NOTE: sending cash through U.S. Mail is risky; cash donations are best done in person. For any questions, contact our office at (714) 434-6200 extension 200.
Giving Clubs
Your membership in a Giving Club will produce the steady source of income so badly needed for planning and building more affordable homes for families in Orange County.
Give a gift in someone's name
Avoid the shopping malls and give a gift donation to Habitat in someone else's name.
Construction and home improvement materials
To reduce building costs, and to stock our ReStore, Habitat relies on donations of tools and construction materials. Our needs range from raw lumber to finished cabinets. We have set up a deconstruction crew for any donors looking to donate items that need to be taken out, whether it's a tear-down or just a remodel. Specific guidelines on what can and cannot be used by Habitat can be found on the ReStore website.
For inquiries, contact the ReStore Manager.
Cars for Homes™
