History

Our Boston University campus chapter works with local affiliates in the Greater Boston area and with the larger Habitat community to help achieve these goals. Founded in 1995, our chapter regularly participates in build trips throughout Massachusetts, donating our time and labor to achieving the goal of affordable housing for all. We also have group meetings throughout the school year, special programs and events every semester to raise awareness for Habitat and its cause, and we annually send a group of twenty or so student volunteers on an alternative Collegiate Challenge program during the week of Spring Break.

The increase in membership size has increased the need for more activites for members, and we’re proud to offer a number of ways members can become involved in the BU chapter of Habitat for Humanity.
