The Playhouse Project is a unique opportunity that allows Habitat MidOhio to partner with sponsors to build a playhouse for a local family in need—providing children with a safe place to play and imagine what home means to them. Funds raised go toward building new houses right here in Central Ohio.

Sponsor a Playhouse

Turn a day of teamwork into something unforgettable—build joy from the ground up.

Rally your company, organization, faith group, or friends to sponsor a one-of-a-kind playhouse with Habitat MidOhio. We’ll pair your team with a local family and share their children's interests so you can design something truly personal. Then, roll up your sleeves and bring it to life. The best part? Presenting the finished playhouse to the family at the end of the day - no cost to them, and an experience your team won’t forget.

Choose your build:

Single Playhouse Build — $3,000
Join us at Habitat's Columbus warehouse or Newark ReStore for one of our monthly pre-scheduled build days from spring through fall.

Volunteer with us

As with any Habitat program, volunteers will play a key role in making The Playhouse Project a success! Check out the opportunities below to see how you can participate in this program. If you believe you have a skill set or idea that could benefit The Playhouse Project that is not listed below, don’t hesitate to reach out!

The Playhouse Project Captains: These volunteers will coordinate groups of 8-10 volunteers in painting and assembling playhouses. Captains will be trained so they can independently lead a sponsor group in the assembly and decoration of a playhouse. Captains must be at least 18 and possess excellent people skills, in addition to some basic construction knowledge.

Playhouse Kit Creation: Prior to a Playhouse Project build, the wooden playhouse kits must be created and primed. Volunteers 18 and up who have some basic woodworking skills can join our kit creation crew, which works throughout the year to produce all of the walls, bases, roofs, and trim pieces at the Habitat warehouse. 

Playhouse Priming: Once the kits have been created, volunteers are also needed to prime all the pieces prior to a playhouse build. Groups of 8-10 will come to the Habitat warehouse for priming sessions, typically in 2-4 hour shifts. The minimum age for priming is 12.
