Where We Build
Manatee County Habitat for Humanity is proud of each neighborhood that has been developed through partnering with our Habitat families, donors and volunteers.
Hope Landing (3800 17th Street E., Ellenton, FL 34222-across from Blackburn Elementary School)
Hope Landing will be the first Habitat community built entirely with energy-efficient construction techniques. Each home’s exterior walls will be made from ICF’s (Insulated Concrete Forms) which are not just energy-efficient but also storm ready and pest resistant – saving homeowners both money and time in maintenance.
Home construction will start soon, take a look at pictures from the recent Groundbreaking Celebration:
