Copper Country Habitat for Humanity is a local affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, serving the Copper Country region of Michigan since 1994. This nonprofit organization partners with individuals in need to construct energy-efficient homes, which are sold at no profit and with zero interest, making them more accessible for families. By involving volunteers and local donations, Copper Country Habitat for Humanity creates a sustainable model for housing through the concept of "sweat equity," where partner families contribute their time to build their own homes as well as those of others. Their innovative design principles and low average utility costs aim to foster affordable living and community development. Generated from the website

The Keweenaw Heritage Center, located in Calumet, Michigan, is a historical site that showcases the rich cultural heritage of the region, which was a hub for copper mining in the early 20th century. Built by Reverend J. R. Boissonault, the center includes a church dedicated to St. Anne, designed by the architectural firm Charlton Gilbert and Demar, using red sandstone from the nearby Jacobsville quarry. The center reflects the diverse population that contributed to the area's mining industry, including various ethnic groups such as Cornish, Croatian, Finnish, French Canadian, Italian, Polish, Scottish, Slovenian, and Swedish communities. Visitors can explore the center's history through numerous resources, including newsletters and photo galleries. Generated from the website
