Come Help Us Grow
Habitat for Humanity of Schenectady County is working to unleash and mobilize revitalization forces in Schenectady County's most distressed neighborhoods.

There are many areas where you can help; these include: financial management, family relations, construction management, fund-raising, site selection, volunteer scheduling, public relations, church relations and personnel training. If any of these sound interesting to you then please visit our site to "Get Involved", and send a note about your interest, and contact information, to the "volunteer" e-mail address provided.

We have a huge challenge and great opportunity in front of us in delivering our mission...the elimination of substandard housing in Schenectady County. Please join us. Whether you swing a hammer, help in fundraising or participate in one of the many operating committees that makes it all work, please get involved. We need your participation, resources and leadership to meet our challenge.

A message from Hannah's Hope:

We are a parent, family and friend driven organization with more passion, determination and love than is imaginable. The mission of Hannah's Hope is to raise funding for research to find treatment and a cure for Giant Axonal Neuropathy (GAN), as well as raise awareness about this devastating neurodegenerative disorder.  We've been told by a GAN researcher the GAN gene pathway is one of the easiest pathways to fix.  Stanford University has agreed to spearhead a team of world renowned neuroscientists and researchers to find a treatment and a cure.  However, they need funding in order to proceed.  That's where we come in. 

It is important to remember that when a breakthrough is achieved for GAN, doors may open for other more complex neurodegenerative disorders.  We have some of the best medical minds in the world ready to tackle GAN, but they need funding!  Hannah's life, and the lives of so many others afflicted with this disease need your tax deductible donation NOW! Please help us save our precious daughter, Hannah, and all those whose lives are being destroyed by GAN.
