Welcome to
Habitat for Humanity Kamloops
who we are
Habitat Kamloops was founded in 2000 as a non – profit charitable society. We are committed to bringing communities together to help families, veterans, seniors, single parents, special needs groups, and indigenous peoples. Based in Kamloops, British Columbia, we serve communities in four regional districts in the central & northern interior including: Thompson-Nicola, Cariboo, Columbia- Shuswap and Frasier-Fort George.
Habitat Kamloops desires to be a solution to the affordable housing crisis in our region by dedicating our efforts to a new development model that will serve a historic high number of families over the next five years. We have a new strategic direction for the organization which is intended to be a for catalyst for renewed “mission motivation”
After a wide-spread consultative process with community leaders and external stakeholders, there is an identified need for over 400 attainable housing units in the communities we serve. Habitat Kamloops newly developed vision for 2020 moving forward is to identify & breakdown barriers to our ability to serve more families. To stimulate creativity that recognizes regional differences and meets communities needs in order to significantly drive home building over the next five years.

We have 50,000 tickets, so there is lots of opportunity to enter to win this beautiful car. At only $25, it’s a great deal!

Habitat Kamloops serves 4 regional districts that takes us from Lumby to Revelstoke to Lillooet to Prince George.
This is the second year of the classic car raffle; the fundraiser is a partnership with the the History Channels Rust Valley Restorers. The Rust Bros team restore the Habitat vehicle on the show. The TV series, which is filmed in Tappen, follows Mike Hall, Avery Shoaf and Connor Charman-Hall as they fix up cars. Last year, they built a 1968 Chevy Camaro SS convertible for Habitat. That car was won by Louise Dagg of Kamloops BC. She was thrilled!
We are very excited to be associated with Rust Valley. We’re thankful for their sponsorship and their participation.
If you’d like to see this year’s convertible in person, it will ll be unveiled in Salmon Arm during a Father’s Day parade.

our builds
Habitat for Humanity Kamloops works in partnership with people from all walks of life to build homes, communities and hope.
This past June of 2018 two families have moved into their brand new duplex on Westsyde Road. Habitat for Humanity relies on contributions of service, supplies, equipment and cash donations from local businesses in the construction community and other businesses and individuals to build new homes for deserving families. We are always looking for volunteers on our build site and corporate team opportunities are also available.
