Putting God’s Love Into Action
Abilene Habitat is a nonprofit, nondenominational Christian housing ministry that invites people of all backgrounds, races, and religions to build together in partnership with local families to eliminate substandard housing from the city of Abilene.
Bringing People Together to Build Homes, Communities, and Hope
Thanks to the countless hours of service contributed by committed volunteers and the monetary and material donations provided by the Abilene community, 153 homes have been built or renovated to provide simple, decent shelter for local families.
Simple, Decent, Affordable Housing
Habitat builds homes in partnership with hardworking, low-income families and the community. The homes are sold at no profit with zero-percent interest mortgages to partnering families, whom we have prepared to be successful homeowners.

2013 Hammer Down Du
Thanks to Biketown for sponsoring and organizing the 2nd annual Hammer Down Du!
Participants of all ages showed up to run 1.8 miles, cycle 10 miles, and run 1.8 more. The youngest athlete was just 5 years old! We couldn’t have asked for better weather, and we appreciate all those who participated in the race as well as those who volunteered to make this duathlon successful.
The funds raised by this event will go towards the costs of constructing houses in partnership with hardworking families in our community.
