About

Habitat for Humanity Ireland is a Christian housing organisation and social enterprise dedicated to eliminating poverty housing. The organisation operates low-cost ReStore retail outlets across Ireland, delivers tenancy support through practical home improvements, provides accredited vocational training, and mobilises local and international volunteers for global shelter projects.

Services

Habitat ReStore

A social enterprise network offering donated new and used DIY, building, and home improvement materials at 50-75% below retail price. The service helps low-income families improve their homes affordably, diverts thousands of tons of reusable items from landfill, and creates inclusive local volunteering opportunities.

House to Home Programme

Supports vulnerable individuals and families at risk of repeating homelessness to sustain tenancies through practical household help. The service delivers up to two days of decorating and repair work, provides essential furniture items from ReStore, and delivers basic home maintenance training to build tenant independence.

Global Volunteering Programme

Organises international volunteer trips for individuals, church groups, schools, and corporate teams to build homes alongside vulnerable communities worldwide. Participants gain hands-on construction experience, support water, sanitation, and disaster resilience projects, and return home equipped to advocate for global shelter equality.
