Habitat for Humanity Canada (HFHC, also known as Habitat Canada; French: Habitat pour l'humanité Canada)[1] is a non-governmental, and non-profit housing organization in Canada, being the Canadian arm of the global Habitat for Humanity.

The Habitat for Humanity movement spread to Canada in 1985, with the first Canadian build taking place in Winkler, Manitoba.[2][3] HFHC has since grown to 50 affiliates in all 13 provinces & territories, with each affiliate being managed by a local board of directors.[4][1][5] HFHC has been in all ten provinces since 1998 (the final province being Quebec),[5] and all three territories since 2014.[6]

Since its founding, HFHC has successfully provided over 3,800 families with safe, decent, and affordable housing.

The world’s first ReStore was opened by Habitat for Humanity Winnipeg in 1991.[7]
