Our outdoor, socially-distanced celebration will follow COVD-19 safety guidelines.

In an effort to protect our staff, volunteers, donors, customers and the families we seek to serve, we have taken unprecedented steps to have our office staff work remotely and to install all necessary precautions at our ReStore and our construction sites. Our priority is always to support the health and safety of our people — and to take a calm and informed approach to address this challenging situation.
With this in mind, effective Friday, May 15, 2020, Morris Habitat has taken the following actions –
If you have a question, please email our general mailbox at info@morrishabitat.org or leave a message at 973.891.1934. All calls and emails will be returned within 24 hours.
We will continue to monitor the situation closely and we will re-open our offices as soon as it is safe to do so.
This disruption to our workflow will most certainly affect our fundraising. The families we seek to serve are already vulnerable; many of them in positions at the forefront of the crisis — health care workers, civil servants, service sector employees; those to whom a missed paycheck can mean catastrophe. If you intended to volunteer, to visit the ReStore, or to donate – please show your support with a donation to keep us building a better place as we face down this pandemic.
Thank you for your continued support in staying safe and healthy during this challenging time. We will make it through this crisis, and it will make us stronger.
Blair Schleicher Wilson, Chief Executive Officer
Everyone deserves a decent place to live.
On World Habitat Day, the first Monday of October, Habitat for Humanity joins the United Nations and organizations around the world in raising awareness, educating, and mobilizing individuals and communities to take action on the current global housing crisis.
A decent place to live can remove barriers to opportunity, health and success that might have been part of a family’s life for years, if not generations. Through shelter, we empower.
Lack of access to land is often at the heart of inadequate housing.
To build a shelter and make it a home, a family needs to know they have rights and won’t be evicted. Ensuring access to land — meaning the laws about who owns and has rights to land — is one of the top priorities for Habitat for Humanity. Removing current barriers to access would benefit millions of people around the world. Improvements would include greater gender equality, increased disaster resilience and decreased slum conditions. Improving access to land can increase economic growth, address inequalities and reduce poverty.
We invite you to support our efforts in these ways.
With your help, we can improve lives and communities — at home and around the globe.
Let’s go to Macedonia! (virtually, of course!!)
Morris Habitat for Humanity is hosting a virtual Habitat Global Village Trip luncheon to Veles, Macedonia, on Friday, May 29, from noon to 1:30 p.m. You will be in your own home, participating in a Zoom conference on your computer, and eating food prepped by you.
We’ll spend an hour exploring Macedonian culture, food, drink and people, while learning about the families there who need safe housing.
