Our committees are made of volunteers and homeowners. They lay the groundwork for our success and are an indispensable part of Habitat for Humanity of Baldwin County. Committees are the backbone of Habitat for Humanity and are a great way to make a positive change in your community.  Committees brainstorm and research ideas to strenghen Habitat while we fulfill our mission to eliminate poverty housing in Baldwin County and the world.  Committees also present recommendations to the Executive Director who then shares these ideas with the Board of Directors.
