Homeownership's impact after 10 years

Melissa Wallace’s home in Mountain Iron was dedicated in 2014. She often worked 90 hours per week  to provide for her family, but she could barely afford $800 utility bills—and their home was still too cold. She had little time to spend with her children. After purchasing her Habitat home, she is financially stable, can spend quality time with her family, has refreshed her home by herself, and has a positive outlook for the future. In this video, you’ll hear in her own words how Habitat made an impact on Melissa’s life and how she was an active participant in the process.

Everyone deserves a decent place to live

Every heart and hand can help

Every voice can make a difference

Habitat stats

Demand exceeds supply

In 2021, only 150 homes were built in Minnesota for four-person households making less than $31,000.

Income not keeping pace with home values

St. Louis County home values increased 43% from 2000–2019. Homeowner income during that period increased 8%.

Assisting cost-burdened families

Out of all St. Louis County renter households, 25% pay more than half of their income toward housing.

Over 120 families helped

Over 120 families in 15 Iron Range communities have partnered with NSLCHFH since 1995.

83¢ / dollar builds homes

In 2023, 83 cents of every dollar spent supported our home building program.
