10th Annual Cardboard City A Success
October 24 - 25, 2025
502 N 8th St, Manitowoc, WI
This year's Cardboard City: Battle of the Builders, was a success thanks to our wonderful sponsors, participants, vendors, judges and tireless volunteers.
This collaborative event provided an opportunity to raise awareness about homelessness and generated critical funds to support housing efforts in Manitowoc County. The proceeds will be divided among local organizations: Hope House, The Haven, and Habitat for Humanity.
If you missed out on the fun of Cardboard City this year, we'll see you in 2026!

Home Repair Project for Veterans

Habitat is continuing to offer a new Home Repair Program meant to serve qualifying military personnel in Manitowoc County as they so generously served us. Our inaugural Vet Home Repair helped a local US Army veteran with a total roof repair. Hooah!
The Home Repair for Veterans Program focuses on high-impact, volunteer-friendly external construction projects that allow low-income homeowners to stay in their homes with improved comfort and safety. Projects might include fixing a porch, building a wheelchair ramp or repairing steps.
If you are or know of an existing veteran homeowner needing light external repairs, learn more here and complete an application today!
