Let's Connect
Faith Village
The Faith Village initiative brings together people from various religious faiths to build
and rehabilitate homes for low-income families. Habitat KC has three distinct efforts in our
Faith Outreach portfolio:
House of Abraham
House of Abraham is an interfaith effort of local Jewish, Christian and Muslim communities that come together each year to build a home for an area family in need of safe and affordable shelter. Composed of more than 20 congregations, House of Abraham has built seven homes for Habitat homeowners.
Mitzvah House
Mitzvah House is a collaborative effort of the Jewish community of the greater Kansas City area. Mitzvah House has built two homes in its young history and aims to build more as it continues to organize and bring together more than a dozen congregations and Jewish organizations to support this effort.
Catholic Build
Catholic Build is Habitat KC’s newest faith build effort. Currently in organizational development, Catholic Build has strong support from the Catholic Diocese of Kansas City – St. Joseph and the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas where volunteers are assembled and ready for its first build project.
