Habitat for Humanity of Clinton County is a Christian housing ministry with the goal of eliminating substandard housing in our community. Our purpose is to provide a “hand up” not a “hand out,” by building homes with volunteer labor and selling the home at cost to a family who could not otherwise afford to own a home.
