Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (HHOC) brings together people and resources to build quality affordable homes with people who need them. Habitat for Humanity of Orange County is affiliated with Habitat for Humanity International, an ecumenical Christian housing ministry that welcomes to its work people of all faiths, founded in 1976.

HHOC came to DesignHammer with a website, that while attractive, didn't do the best job of helping them get their message out to the community. DesignHammer provided a website that allowed habitat staff to post their most important and timely information to their home page, as well as structure additional information in a more user friendly manner.

DesignHammer donated approximately $4,000.00 in services toward the initial project.

“Thanks for creating a beautiful and user-friendly website for us — the staff cheered when the new site loaded up. You guys are fabulous.”
