Increasingly, individuals are remembering their friends and families on the occasion of their birthday, anniversary, etc. with a gift to Rice County Habitat for Humanity. To specify a gift in honor of someone, please include their name and address. A special note card will be sent to the person being celebrated, informing them that a gift has been made in their honor. To give a memorial gift, please include the name and address of the next of kin so they may be notified of the gift in memory of their loved one.
If you are interested in making a tribute gift in honor of several individuals, we would like to suggest a minimum of $25.00 per person in order to process your gift as efficiently as possible. While we sincerely and gratefully welcome all donations, your consideration of our request regarding tribute gifts will help to ensure that 88.5% of every dollar donated continues to provide direct program support for hardworking, Rice County families in need.

With the support of individual volunteers, skilled craftsworkers, churches, businesses and organizations, we feel confident that we will achieve these goals.
