We pray. we build. we support.
At Fuller Center for Housing, we not only help build affordable housing, we also help homewoners learn what it takes to keep that home and maintain it. We offer education and support long after the final stroke of the paintbrush. It's our commitment to the families and the community.

Ginger Ford Northshore fuller center
Using volunteers to serve low-income, elderly and disabled.
Ginger Ford Northshore Fuller Center for Housing, Inc. is a faith-driven and Christ-centered ministry which uses volunteers to build and repair houses for low-income families in Tangipahoa and Livingston Parishes in Southeast Louisiana. Homeowners pay us back for building materials on terms they can afford, with no profit for us and no interest charged to them. Their collective repayments allow us to serve more folks in need. It is truly a “pay-it-forward” ministry based on the bible verse Acts 20:35 which says “remember the words of the Lord Jesus, ‘it is a greater blessing to give than to receive.’”

We couldn't help families without our staff and volunteers!
