Welcome to Houses to Homes!

Houses to Homes is a new way for Austinites (and beyond) to help the Katrina survivors, who are now our neighbors, in a tangible way. As of this posting, we've only been in "operation" for about 4 days. But in that short amount of time, there is already one entire family that now can really call Austin home.

Within 2 days of offering a vacant house to the City of Austin, our dedicated crew rounded up furniture, groceries, and other supplies, literally turning the house into a home.

Stay tuned for updates. We've already heard about 3-4 more houses that are in the works for the next two weeks? Want to help? Leave us a comment and we'll get you the information.

Thanks, Trina! I'll let you know what we need. We've got one coming up this Tuesday (I think) so I'll post more information about it as it become available.
