Board – Habitat for Humanity

Leadership Committed to Building Homes, Hope, and Community

The work of Southern Brazoria County Habitat for Humanity is powered by the strength and dedication of our Board of Directors — a diverse group of local leaders who volunteer their time, expertise, and heart to help advance our mission. Together, they ensure that our organization remains transparent, mission-focused, and rooted in the values that make Habitat for Humanity a force for good in southern Brazoria County.

What Our Board Does

Our Board of Directors is more than just a governing body — they are active stewards of our mission and vision. Their responsibilities include:

Overseeing strategic planning and organizational growth
Providing financial oversight and approving budgets
Supporting fundraising, donor relations, and advocacy efforts
Ensuring that Habitat’s work remains true to our core values of partnership, stewardship, and empowerment
Representing Habitat to the broader community and building meaningful relationships with local leaders, businesses, and faith organizations

Their leadership makes it possible for us to continue building affordable homes for hardworking families — and to do it with integrity, accountability, and compassion.

What Our Board Does

We are proud to be guided by a group of individuals who represent a wide cross-section of our community — business professionals, educators, faith leaders, retirees, and volunteers — all united by a single purpose: to build a stronger Brazoria County through affordable housing.

A Commitment to Transparency

As a nonprofit organization that serves families and relies on community support, we take accountability seriously. Our board ensures that all major decisions — from home selection to budget allocations — are made with fairness, integrity, and a long-term vision for growth. Every dollar donated, every hour volunteered, and every home we build is done with careful stewardship and a deep sense of responsibility to our community.

Want to Get Involved?

If you’re interested in nonprofit leadership or serving on a committee that supports our board, we’d love to hear from you. From advisory groups to event planning to board nominations, there are many ways to contribute your skills to the mission.

Together, we can keep building more than homes. We can build a legacy.

Join Our Mission

The heart of Habitat isn’t the homes — it’s the people. Donors, volunteers, community leaders, and partner families are the engine that drives us. If you believe in giving people a solid foundation to build their future on, there’s a place for you here. Together, we can build a better Brazoria County — one home, one family, one act of kindness at a time.
