Restore Progress

Fueled by the dedication and excitement of the ReStore Interim Committee, steady and significant progress toward establishing an affiliate ReStore is being made. The draft comprehensive business plan was presented to the board at its June meeting. The site selection committee is actively pursing a potential location for the store. After completion of the business plan, we’ll concentrate on raising dollars for the start-up equipment and operational costs for the first several months. ReStore information will be available at the Willamette Valley Brews and Blues Festival benefitting Springfield/Eugene Habitat on August 7th and 8th at Island Park. Committee members and many other Habitat supporters are securing sponsors and advertisers for the festival. If you would like more information about or to become a volunteer with ReStore group, contact Penny Parks at (541)741-1707 or email Penny at

Apostles Build

Habitat for Humanity Springfield/Eugene’s most natural partner is the church community. Building a Habitat home offers the Church an outlet for missions, fellowship, and putting faith into action.

The Apostles Build is a new program at Habitat for Humanity Springfield/Eugene, designed to reach out to the faith community for support in building not just affordable homes in our area, but hope.

The Apostles Build is a partnership that allows twelve individual churches to join together with Habitat for Humanity to fully fund and build a house for a local Partner Family. Jesus’ original apostles were charged with spreading the word about Jesus; our apostles are charged with assisting in Habitat for Humanity’s mission to provide decent shelter for God’s children.

Springfield/Eugene Habitat for Humanity is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International working to help end poverty housing in the greater Springfield and Eugene community. Habitat is founded on Christian principles and works in partnership with God and people everywhere, from all walks of life, building safe, simple, decent, affordable houses for people in need.

We offer a caring hand up. We invite you to explore Habitat's work in the community and join in furthering its mission.
