Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Habitat for Humanity Saskatchewan is a local nonprofit housing organization with a global vision of a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live. It mobilizes communities to help working, lower-income families build strength, stability, and self-reliance through affordable homeownership. In 2021, Habitat Saskatchewan was created by merging Habitat Regina, Habitat Saskatoon, and Habitat Prince Albert to broaden the organization’s reach to serve more families in our communities and across the province. Being part of an international organization, Habitat for Humanity helps families improve their housing situation in more than 70 countries worldwide. A Habitat ReStore retail store is also located in each city that collects and sells new and used donated furnishings, home accessories and renovation/building materials to support the organization’s homebuilding activities.
