Building Birdhouses to Build Futures!

Creature Comforts Project - House the Birds, House the People

Lincoln/Lancaster County Habitat for Humanity partnered with groups and individuals in our community to bring awareness to poverty housing issues in our area through our Creature Comforts Project. Our construction volunteers built birdhouses that were decorated and signed by our sponsors - affording a fun opportunity for Habitat supporters to unleash their creativity for a great cause. Our collection includes houses signed by Husker staff and coaches, notable community and city leaders, radio personalities, and other VIPs. View the Sponsored Birdhouses!

Made of recycled or left over wood products, these decorative, signed birdhouses are being used throughout the year to bring awareness to the Creature Comforts that we all deserve, a simple, safe, affordable place to "nest". You can still get involved by making a donation or sponsoring a birdhouse. Learn more about how YOU can help…

The finished birdhouses first landed at the Nebraska Builders Home and Garden Show, where they were displayed in home builder and vendor booths, as well as the Habitat for Humanity booth. The birdhouses will continue to migrate around the city through the spring, finally landing at a silent auction where they will be sold. Watch for future details about the auction. Migration schedule:

April 9 - 16: Great Western Bank Lobby at 1235 N Street
May 13 - 20: 2012 Spring Parade of Homes
May 21-25: Wells Fargo Bank Lobby at 1248 O Street
