Do you have an older car, truck, van, trailer, RV or boat taking up valuable space in your driveway?

Car donations support Habitat for Humanity's local and global mission of eliminating poverty housing and homelessness and save you the time and energy of finding a buyer.

By donating a car to our vehicle donation program, you can help Habitat for Humanity of Shelby County build houses in partnership with families in need of a hand up, not a hand out. Your donated vehicle will help us build homes right here in Shelby County.

It is quick and easy to donate automobiles, trucks, boats, RV's, motorcycles, construction equipment and other vehicles ~ running or not! Plus, you may be eligible for a tax deduction. (Consult your tax advisor or the IRS for details.)

For more information on how to donate a car, truck, boat or RV to Cars for Homes(TM) - Habitat's official car donation program, call (877) 277-4344 toll free or visit www.carsforhomes.org. A car donation is a convenient way to support Habitat for Humanity of Shelby County and create more space in your driveway!

Welcome!

Habitat for Humanity of Shelby County is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International. We are a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry that seeks to eliminate poverty stricken housing and homelessness from the world, and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action.

HFH of Shelby County began in 1990 with the desire to partner with the people of the community to help those in need of decent, affordable housing. Habitat sells houses to qualified families at no profit with zero interest loans. Kentucky Housing Corporation services mortgage payments pro bono for Habitat for Humanity of Shelby County.

Habitat builds alongside families who demonstrate the need and willingness to partner with Habitat. Habitat offers a hand up, not a hand out to families who invest 400 "sweat equity" hours building their house and working in our warehouse. Their monthly mortgage payments help fund the construction of more houses.
