About Habitat for Humanity of Kent County

Habitat for Humanity of Kent County (also known as Kent County Habitat for Humanity) is a donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Grand Rapids, Michigan that builds, rehabs, and finances affordable homes for modest-income families across Kent County and parts of nearby counties. The organization operates homebuilding and neighborhood-development programs, homeowner education and support services, and a ReStore retail operation that funds its mission.

In recent years Habitat Kent has scaled production and neighborhood-focused development: it completed 24 homes in 2023, celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2023, surpassed 500 homes built cumulatively, and in 2026 hosted a groundbreaking for Pleasant Hills Phase III — a five-story, 27-unit, energy-efficient multi-family condominium aimed at expanding affordable homeownership options in Grand Rapids. The affiliate maintains regular public financial filings and actively recruits thousands of volunteers each year to support construction and community programs.
