Building More Dreams in Fairfield

The lack of affordable housing in Fairfield County is extreme. By some estimates, the state of Connecticut is short nearly 100,000 units of affordable housing. Habitat for Humanity of Coastal Fairfield County, in partnership with Town of Fairfield seeks to build homes and create a brighter future for deserving families

We are pleased to have completed the first phase of our affordable housing efforts in the Town of Fairfield with the dedication of four homes on Greenfield Street in July 2025. 

We need your help to continue to make dreams a reality. This spring, we will begin work on foour new affordable homes on Quincy Street -- representing our continued partnership with the Town of Fairfield.

An anonymous Fairfield family is offering a dollar-for-dollar match for donations up to $200,000! Help Habitat CFC raise at least $200,000 by January 15, 2026 so we will receive the match and can start to construct the new homes on Quincy Street in Fairfield, Connecticut.

Meet the new Habitat CFC Homeowners on Greenfield Street!

Silvia, Nelson and their children are in the process of moving into the new home they are buying from Habitat with a 30-year interest free mortgage. Silvia and Nelson are overjoyed to partner with Habitat and finally achieve something they’ve long dreamed of—owning their own home! Years of tight living conditions have left the family eager for more space and now they are looking forward to stability, peace, and a place to call their own.

We can do this again on Quincy Street!

Four more families will have the same opportunity to own a new energy-efficient home, if we meet our match and raise enough funds, then the construction can begin this spring.

There are a number of ways you can show your support including supporting our project with a monetary donation, helping spread the word about the special project or volunteering to help construct the Fairfield homes. Volunteers are essential to Habitat’s building effort. Since the project began, more than 1,000 people volunteered on the first four Fairfield homes.
