  • The Grinch who stole our Tools logo
  • On Friday, November 24, a truck and trailer full of tools used to build and repair homes in Woodland Heights, our Neighborhood Revitalization partner, was stolen from our offices. Thanks to the Greene County Sheriff's Office, Springfield Police Department, and tips from local citizens, our truck and trailer were recovered. That's the good news. The bad news - our tools are gone.

    $15,000 of tools must be replaced in order to build and repair homes in Woodland Heights

    A fundraising campaign was established to raised funds to replace our stolen tools. Grants and donations from area businesses will supplement private donations to purchase replacement tools. 


    • Tool Donations: Please contact Brandi VanAntwerp, Development Director, for further details regarding tool donations. To maintain the quality of our home repair and home building program, we reserve the right to only accept tool donations that maintain proper building standards. 417-829-4001 x 106 or brandi@habitatspringfieldmo.org 

    Can you help us replace our stolen tools and repair the damage made to our recovered truck and trailer? Make a donation today!

    We are working with our insurance company on a claim to replace our stolen tools, but we will incur a high deductible.
