About Us

THE VISION IS HOPE FOR OTHERS

HOMES ARE WHAT WE DO, COMMUNITY IS WHAT WE ARE ALL ABOUT.

There is a short distance for many in Park County, and around America, between HOPE and HOMELESSNESS.


Homes From The Heart CO brings "Hope and a Home" to veterans, disabled, elderly, and single-parent/young families in Park Country, Colorado. We build low-cost, sustainable houses for those who are on the brink of homelessness. We're a 501c3 nonprofit organization.


LET'S HELP OUR COMMUNITY TOGETHER.

WE NEED YOUR TALENT AND TOOLS

It takes many different skills to build a home, even a tiny home.  We are desperately in need for more volunteers with skills in framing, roofing, plumbing, and electrical.

 

We can always use excavation help as well as placing small foundations footers. If you can help in any of these areas, please contact us.
