Community Resources

At Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity, we partner with hardworking local families and individuals to make affordable homeownership possible, helping create stable, healthy homes and thriving communities.

While our programs focus on helping families purchase and maintain their homes, we understand that some situations may fall outside of what we can provide directly. For those needs, we’ve gathered a list of trusted community resources that offer assistance with housing, financial education, repairs, and other support services.

We believe that everyone deserves a safe and stable place to call home, and our community offers many ways to build a brighter future together.
