Our Services
Buckeye Ridge Habitat for Humanity is committed to providing opportunities for families to live in homes that are safe, decent, and affordable. Through our Neighborhood Revitalization efforts and partnership with donors, volunteers, and the community we offer two main programs to accomplish this goal: our homeownership program for first-time homeowners and our home repair program for current homeowners.
QUESTIONS? PLEASE CALL US AT (740) 383-2007.
Homeownership
Habitat for Humanity’s homeownership program brings the dream of homeownership to qualifying partner families. Applicants must demonstrate a need for housing, the ability to pay a mortgage, and the willingness to partner with us. This partnership with us is a 12-18 month process that includes construction on their own home and other Habitat homes, financial and home maintenance classes, and serving in their communities. This is a unique part of how Habitat for Humanity works, and is also known as sweat equity.

"A Brush with Kindness" - Home Repair
As part of Buckeye Ridge Habitat for Humanity’s commitment to sustained neighborhood revitalization, we offer our home repair program to current homeowners in Marion, Morrow, Wyandot and Hardin counties. This program enables families to continue living in and maintaining a safe, decent, and affordable home. Homes must be owner-occupied, and owners must be current or on a payment plan with property taxes and mortgage payments.

ARE YOU A U.S. VETERAN OR CURRENTLY SERVING IN THE MILITARY?
We encourage you to consider homeownership through our Veterans Build program. As part of a national initiative, “Veterans Build” encourages veterans and members of the military and their families to access affordable housing through Buckeye Ridge Habitat. Veterans will also qualify for additional mortgage discounts based on years of active service. The initiative also aims to create awareness of the opportunity to productively engage in the community alongside fellow veterans and to promote the value of volunteering in service to others.
