- This Giving Tuesday, consider donating to our organization to support our work keeping local families warm, safe, and dry. The winter months often create a lot of need for our community, including furnace repairs, hot water repairs, added insulation and increasing home energy efficiency.
- If you or someone you know are in need of a home repair, especially due to harsh weather conditions in the coming months, please call to attain a schedule of upcoming information meetings where you can access an application to our services.
10 Reasons to Donate to the Fuller Center for Housing
1. Affordable Housing for All
The Fuller Center for Housing’s mission is to provide safe, decent, and affordable housing to low-income families. Your donation directly supports the construction of homes for people who may otherwise be unable to afford them.
2. Breaking the Cycle of Poverty
Stable housing is a critical factor in breaking the cycle of poverty. A safe and reliable home gives families a foundation to build better lives, providing access to better health, education, and employment opportunities.
3. Community Empowerment
The Fuller Center for Housing focuses on empowering families through homeownership. By contributing, you’re helping to create a sense of community, pride, and stability that benefits both the homeowners and the surrounding neighborhoods.
4. Volunteerism and Hands-On Involvement
Donations to Fuller Center aren’t just financial—they also support volunteer opportunities where you can physically participate in the construction of homes. It’s a great way to get involved in your local community and make a direct impact.
5. Building Partnerships, Not Charity
Fuller Center works alongside families to build their homes, rather than simply providing a handout. Donating to Fuller Center helps promote self-sufficiency and dignity, as future homeowners invest “sweat equity” into the construction of their own homes.
6. Tax Deductibility
Donations to the Fuller Center are typically tax-deductible. This means that not only do you contribute to a noble cause, but you may also receive a tax benefit for your charitable giving.

8. Global Impact
The Fuller Center for Housing operates in many countries around the world. Your donation helps provide housing for people in need, whether in your local community or internationally, promoting global solidarity and social responsibility.
9. Restoring Hope and Dignity
A home represents far more than shelter; it’s a place where families can grow, thrive, and feel secure. Your donation helps restore dignity and hope to individuals who have faced hardship, giving them the chance for a brighter future.
