About Habitat for Humanity

Williamson-Maury:

Habitat for Humanity Williamson-Maury is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and Christian housing ministry, founded as an official Habitat affiliate on December 5, 1992. Since then, we have built and repaired more than 300 homes across the five counties we serve — Williamson, Maury, Lawrence, Hickman, and Decatur — offering a hand-up to individuals and families in need throughout our community.

For more than 30 years, Habitat for Humanity Williamson-Maury has been a trusted presence in Franklin, TN and across Middle Tennessee, working alongside families, volunteers, churches, businesses, and community partners to make affordable homeownership a reality. Our work is rooted in the belief that a safe, stable home changes everything for a family, from improved health and educational outcomes to greater financial stability and community connection. Every home we build or repair in Williamson County, Maury County, and our surrounding service area reflects that conviction.

Our programs extend beyond new home construction to include critical home repairs, a thriving ReStore in Franklin, TN, financial education through our Get Ready program, and a tithing commitment that extends our impact globally. Whether you live in Franklin, Spring Hill, Brentwood, Columbia, or anywhere across our five-county service area, Habitat for Humanity Williamson-Maury is working to build a stronger, more stable Middle Tennessee, one home at a time.

Habitat for Humanity of Williamson and Maury Counties (HFHWM) has an open-door policy: all who believe that everyone needs a decent, affordable place to live are welcome to help with the work, regardless of race, religion, age, gender, political views, or any of the other distinctions that too often divide people.

We are proud to serve a diverse and growing community across Franklin, TN, Williamson County, Maury County, and beyond. Our volunteers come from all walks of life, united by a shared commitment to building homes, communities, and hope throughout Middle Tennessee.

As a matter of policy, Habitat for Humanity International and its affiliated organizations do not proselytize. This means that Habitat will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must either adhere to or convert to a particular faith, or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.
