Habitat for Humanity Ireland

Habitat for Humanity Ireland is a nonprofit development organisation which seeks to "bring people together to build homes, communities and hope".

[citation needed] Early in 2001, a group of individuals and representatives of churches and housing organisations from Dublin became interested in Habitat for Humanity's work.

[citation needed] In November 2002, Habitat for Humanity International's founder met with then President Mary McAleese at Áras an Uachtaráin.

On the same day the international board of directors approved the formation of Habitat for Humanity Ireland in Belfast.

[2][3][4] President of Ireland Michael D. Higgins visited the site and the homeowner families in April 2012.
