HIGHLIGHTS
Cobourg Dedication
On November 13th, we welcomed The Molaskis as new Habitat for Humanity homeowners! Together with board members, volunteers and staff joined community members, neighbours, and local politicians we celebrated the completion of the single detached home in Cobourg.
This newly constructed single-detached home welcomes a multi-generational family of six — Elizabeth, four children and her father, Peter. They are the 78th family to partner with Habitat for Humanity Northumberland since 1998.

Matching Fundraiser
Home for the Holidays Matching Fundraising campaign asked donors to contributed funds towards the items that help us complete our homes in Cobourg & Brighton that we are in the midst of building and hope to complete by the end of 2025.
Help us raise $30,000 by December 31st, 2025 to finish two homes in Brighton and Cobourg and bring 9 people home for the holidays!
It's easy, we have made some suggestions for the symbolic donations we'd love like toilets, drywall, nails and paint. And your donations will be matched up to $15,000! This generous matching donation is made possible by Part Time CFO Services and Stadtke Plumbing and Heating.
Double your Impact. Build a Future.

The Great Gingerbread Build-Off
After 10 years of our annual gingerbread festival, Habitat for Humanity Northumberland is launching something brand new — The Great Gingerbread Build-Off!
This festive fundraiser has a big goal: together, we need to raise funds to support Habitat’s build program and help more local families achieve safe, decent, and affordable housing. We are currently looking for sponsorship for the following events:
Team Build Challenge
When: Thursday, November 20th at 5:30pm
Where: The Mill Restaurant in Cobourg
A one-of-a-kind holiday showdown: teams compete to design and decorate the ultimate gingerbread creations — all while raising critical funds to build homes, communities, and hope!
FREE Kids’ Gingerbread Workshops
When: Weekends in November
Where: Various locations
We invite children to create, learn, and have fun — while directly contributing to Habitat’s vision of a world where everyone has a safe place to live. These are events where children get to roll up their sleeves, get a little messy and play a part in Habitat’s work.
