May Is National Home Improvement Month—Here’s How You Can Make an Impact with Habitat for Humanity Michigan
Spring is in full swing, and with it comes the perfect excuse to finally tackle that home improvement list you’ve been avoiding all winter. But May isn’t just about sprucing up your space—it’s also National Home Improvement Month, a time to recognize the value of safe, functional, and beautiful homes. While you’re painting that accent wall or replacing those outdated cabinets, there’s a powerful way to extend the spirit of improvement beyond your own front door by supporting Habitat for Humanity Michigan.
Home improvement isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about stability, safety, and dignity. That’s exactly what Habitat for Humanity Michigan brings to families across the state. From critical home repairs to full builds, Habitat transforms lives by providing affordable housing solutions to those in need. In fact, many of the projects they take on during National Home Improvement Month involve helping families stay in their homes through essential repairs like roofing, HVAC upgrades, and accessibility modifications.
So how can you get involved this Spring?
- Volunteer your time—Habitat Michigan always needs skilled and unskilled hands-on deck.
- Donate new or gently used tools and materials to your local Habitat ReStore.
- Sponsor a home improvement project or corporate build day with your company.
- Spread the word on social media using #HomeImprovementMonth and tag @HabitatMichigan.
Every improvement—whether it’s your own kitchen makeover or a donation to help someone else stay warm and dry—adds up to stronger communities. This May, make your home projects mean more. Celebrate National Home Improvement Month by rolling up your sleeves and supporting Habitat for Humanity Michigan—because everyone deserves a place to call home.
