Bringing people together to provide and preserve affordable housing opportunities.

We believe that decent, affordable housing should be a matter of conscience and action; we realize that there are people in our community who are living in inadequate conditions and that joining together we can provide a hand up – not a hand out.

This week in Washburn 🏡🌱☀️

🌻 Volunteers made serious progress at Washburn Gardens! They’ve built fences, pathways, and beds alongside the team at Coulee Region Ecoscapes. Thank you!!

🏡 Our Construction Manager enjoyed a much-deserved vacation this week, but that didn’t mean it was quiet at the Habitat houses. The walls were insulated, and Dirt Monkey Excavation LLC graded the exterior. We couldn’t do this without our partners!

Stay up to date on all the excitement at Habitatlacrosse.org/washburn.

It’s happening!! 🌱

Every day this week, volunteers are moving dirt, building fences, mulching paths, and planting pollinators at the Washburn Gardens.

Thank you to everyone helping us revive this special place!

La Crosse Logan Middle School students beat the rain and planted their edible schoolyard earlier this week. 🌳🌿🍃

This is part of the third and final phase of ReNew the Block. Together with students, teachers, and neighbors along Avon Street, we've repaired homes, planted trees and rain gardens, installed outdoor classrooms, and learned about the power of green infrastructure and healthy communities.

This fall, we are finishing the edible schoolyard, installing educational signage, and completing the permeable paver pathway.

Teams of veterans, volunteers, and family members helped construct Natasha’s Habitat home in Tomah followed by a dedication in December 2024, just in time for the holidays. Optum returned earlier this week to help with interior cleaning and exterior landscaping.

What is Healthy Optum-ism, you might ask? A realistic yet hopeful belief that when you’re grounded in real-world needs, human connection and data-driven expertise, better is always possible. Many thanks to Optum for continuing their partnership with Habitat for Team Builds!
