About Us


Here at Habitat for Humanity  Auckland, we have helped give 67 families a hand up into their own simple, decent housing in the region; and improved housing conditions for 10 families in the remote village of Navula, Vanuatu.
 
Habitat  Auckland is the result of a merger between the three Auckland-based affiliates (Franklin, Manukau and Waitakere) in July 2006. As such, it has roots in New Zealand's first ever Habitat for Humanity presence, the Franklin affiliate, who built Habitat NZ's first house in 1993.
 
We serve the area from Wellsford to Meremere, primarily concentrating on the areas we have traditionally worked in, but gradually moving into other parts of Greater Auckland.
 
 
8 Ormiston Road

Habitat  Auckland's base of operations at 8 Ormiston Road was completed in 2002. With the generous support of a number of investors who loaned money at zero interest, over a six year period, Greater Auckland was able to purchase the 12,000 sq. m property.

 
The primary objective of the Ormiston depot is to transition Habitat  Auckland toward financial sustainability. The site generates income through its ReStore operations, and through commercial leasing.
 
The depot also provides offices for staff and key volunteers to work from; workshop and storage for tools and building materials; and yard area that provides the capacity to pre-build houses on-site for subsequent relocation.
