In the summer of 2011, Habitat for Humanity of Martha's Vineyard hosted a special event - a story telling concert by Vinyarder Susan Klein. It was a great success and those in attendance were riveted by Susan's tales of Martha's Vineyard of yore. Susan kindly produced a recording in which she tells the story of one of our partners, Chris Rasmussen. It is a short story about the challenge that many year round residents experience in surviving in this wonderful place. Please take a few minutes to watch this story unfold.

Our Mission
Our mission is to build simple, decent housing for families in the lowest qualifying income range. Our homes are built with volunteer labor, donated materials and charitable donations. We believe that addressing the lack of affordable housing - one house at a time - will keep our Island a healthy, vital community.
We graciously accept donations of time, materials as well as financial donations.
Help Habitat of MV
Habitat is able to deliver affordable housing to families earning at or below 80% of the Dukes County Area Median Income (AMI) through generous financial donations, volunteer time and new and recycled building materials. Please become a Habitat partner and make a difference in the world. Donate money, time and/or building materials today.
What We are Building Now
We have been awarded three lots in Bailey Park Road by the Town of West Tisbury. Our first of the three builds will involve a house move and renovation. Groundbreaking began the last week of December, 2010.
We are pleased to announce that Habitat for Humanity of Martha's Vineyard
is a recipient of a grant from the
Permanent Endowment Fund
to purchase computer equipment for the organization. |
