It is in the shelters built by HomeAid Houston’s dedicated builders where people live, thrive, and become productive citizens. The shelters are built with a heart for HomeAid’s mission to help people experiencing or at risk of homelessness build new lives through construction, community engagement, and education.

HomeAid Houston, a 501 c 3 charity was established by the leadership of the Greater Houston Builders Association in 2003 and is one of 19 chapters of HomeAid America, the nation’s largest provider of transitional shelters for the homeless. HomeAid identifies long term, stable non-profit care providers, who need additional capacity and pairs them with GHBA builders, remodelers, vendors, and suppliers who donate their time, materials, and labor to help build hope and homes for the homeless.

Our mission gives us broad latitude to engage in building projects across the entire Continuum of Care, from emergency shelters to transitional housing to permanent supportive housing. Every HomeAid project supports an agency that provides services that help residents move toward self-sufficiency, such as education and job skills training, physical and emotional support, etc.
