Baha'is are involved in various service projects all over the world..

I know in my local area a Baha'i lost her home in a fire and she then lived with some Baha'i families until her house was rebuilt..Baha'is assisted in the process of rebuilding..finally she was able to return to her home..but this was not part of any organized Habitat for Humanity .. it was less formal and more or less a collaboration of Baha'is in the general area..

You can also explore what we call Social Developement projects in various parts of the world.. Here are a few sites that might help your search..
