Habitat for Humanity is an international, non-governmental, nonprofit organization devoted to building simple, decent and affordable housing. We believe everyone deserves a decent and safe place to live.

Putnam County Habitat for Humanity has two programs that offer applicants the opportunity for safe, decent, affordable housing: Home Ownership and Critical Home Repair.
Take a look.

SOUP FOR SHELTER
Friday, December 1, 4-7:30 p.m.
at the Schroeder Center for the Arts, 162 W. Main Street, Ottawa, OH 45875
Sample a variety of soups, breads and desserts while supporting Putnam County Habitat for Humanity's mission for safe, decent, affordable housing throughout Putnam County. When you enter the holiday-decorated Schroeder Center for the Arts on December 1, adult ticketholders will have their choice of a beautifully hand-crafted bowl made by local high school and college students and regional artists and all the soup that they can sample. Tickets for adults are $25. Tickets are also available for $5 for children 12-and-under (do not include the hand-made bowl.)

PCHFH TOOL & PURSE BINGO
Thursday, February 15, 2024 (tentative date)
at VFW Post 9142, 212 West Second Street, Ottawa
What makes the PCHFH event different from other bingo games is that games will celebrate those tools by alternating designer handbags with name-brand tools as game prizes. Doors will open at 5 p.m. Games begin at 6 p.m. Food will be available to purchase. Tickets are $35 each or tables of eight may be reserved in advance for $280. Those reserving a table may decorate their table for a chance to win a prize. Tickets will go on sale in January 2024.

Volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization. Consider giving up just a few hours of your time to learn valuable skills, meet some incredible new people and change the lives of local families forever.
