Chicagoland Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit affiliate support organization dedicated to assisting five local Habitat for Humanity affiliates in the Chicago metropolitan area and surrounding counties. The non-profit company is based in Palatine, IL. The organization works to increase affordable homeownership by focusing on capacity building, resource development, marketing, training, advocacy, and shared services for affiliates that build, sell, and repair homes. It encourages community involvement through volunteering, donating, fundraising, and advocacy, and operates a network of ten ReStores that sell donated goods at discounted prices to fund its mission and promote environmental sustainability. Chicagoland Habitat for Humanity administers regional programs such as the Veterans Build Initiative, which provides homeownership and repair opportunities for military veterans, and partners with the Illinois Housing Development Authority to offer forgivable loans for critical home repairs to eligible homeowners affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The organization coordinates regional fundraising events, manages media and advocacy efforts for fair housing policies, and provides technical assistance and grant support to affiliates.
