About us
Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity helps individuals and families achieve strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity is part of a global, nonprofit housing organization operated on Christian principles that seek to put God's love into action by building homes, communities, and hope. Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally and worldwide through constructing, rehabilitating and preserving homes; by advocating for fair and just housing policies; and by providing training and access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman, and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all. No one lives in dignity until we all do.

Nancy Marie Van Anne, a woman of unwavering determination and boundless compassion, passed away on August 26, 2024. We honor her for her philanthropic work and the positive impact she made on the lives of those around her. "While attending the Graduate Theological Union at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1986-1987, Nancy deepened her knowledge of philosophy and theology and learned about Habitat for Humanity. Inspired by this experience, she returned home determined to establish a chapter in Greeley. In 1987, she and other dedicated residents founded the Greeley Area Habitat for Humanity chapter. Nancy’s influence has touched every family served by the organization since its inception, improving countless lives. She continued to mentor the Greeley Area Habitat staff for decades, even until the end of her life. Her incredible spirit will live on in the work of the chapter and the families it serves for generations to come." A Mass of the Resurrection will be today at 9:30 a.m. at St. Peter’s Catholic Church.

We are so excited to announce the completion of Mission Springs! With the invaluable support of Commonwealth Companies, we proudly completed a 95-unit housing development in Evans, Colorado. This project was a top priority as it aimed to replace half of the 200 homes lost in Evans during the 2013 floods in Colorado. The development played a pivotal role in achieving safe and stable homes for hard-working families in our community. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our sponsors, including the City of Evans, Habitat for Humanity of Colorado, the Colorado Department of Local Affairs, home sponsors, donors, volunteers, and partners, who contributed to making this development a reality and a resounding success story in Weld County. Your hard work, time, and dedication are truly memorable and have positively impacted the lives of 27 Habitat families. We are excited to move to our newest development, Hope Springs, a 174-home development! #buildstrong #thankful #makeadifference #communitypartners #affordablehomeownership #innovative

Tami Grant, it takes a dedicated leader like you to make projects like this possible. It was Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity's honor to work in partnership with Weld County Government, Roche Constructors, Inc., and the to build the Hill N' Park Senior Center. What an incredible collaboration resulting in a long awaited dream come true for the Seniors who will benefit from a place of fellowship, fun and connection to each other and their community. Kudos to the county and High Plains Library District for enriching the center even more! #transformationalpartnerships #community partners #SeniorCare

Thank you, The Weld Trust, for supporting our hands-on Career Technical Education program in partnership with Greeley-Evans Schools District 6! Your support means the world to the students and our Habitat homeowners who can learn, build, and live in a better community through affordable homeownership.
The Weld Trust awarded Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity a three year grant starting in 2022 to support homeownership through the Career Pathway Program at Jefferson high school. Here the students get on the job training and credits toward dual enrollment for both their high school graduation and college credit at Aims Community College.

The turnout at our Hope Springs Grand Opening on May 30th filled the City of Greeley with immense joy. We are eternally thankful to all our partners, whose collective dedication and support of this groundbreaking project have been instrumental in fulfilling the dreams of over 174 families of achieving homeownership. "We're not going to solve the affordable housing crisis," said Cheri Witt-Brown, CEO of Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity. "But we can certainly start to make movement with projects like this." Hope Springs development demonstrates that we can come together to help build a better community for everyone. Featuring amenities like the JBS Mini Pitch Soccer Field, Oxy Nature Discovery Park, and an Organic Garden managed by the Greeley Morning Garden Club and Community Grows Land Works Organic Community Garden, this development will offer countless opportunities for families to live, grow, and thrive. With its water-wise and cost-effective design, Hope Springs will be a community where we can all take pride. "Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity’s impact is so much more than building homes, they are building healthy, thriving neighborhoods throughout the County. They help Habitat families finance their homes and prepare for future success. I also think the positive economic impact Habitat gives to the community is substantial by reinvesting donor dollars back into the local community. Everything Greeley-Weld Habitat does throughout the process is well thought through and has a generational impact in Weld County." Jeff Carlson, CEO of The Weld Trust Thank you to our amazing partners, sponsors, donors, and community who have helped the dreams of over 250 families come true! You are why we can continue our work and achieve our goal of building pathways out of poverty.
