Habitat for Humanity raises funds to cover the upfront cost of building a home and then extends a unique opportunity to deserving families. Through generous donations and community support, Habitat secures the necessary funds to construct safe and affordable homes. Once the house is complete, Habitat provides the homeowner with a 30-year interest-free mortgage that is tailored not to exceed 30% of their income. This innovative approach makes homeownership attainable, ensuring that families can achieve their dreams of owning a home without the financial burden of traditional mortgages. It's a commitment to building not just houses but sustainable futures for individuals and communities.
Testimonials
“In December of 2022, I had pretty much given up. I was struggling to find a place to live and I was struggling to find faith in humanity….and then I got a call. I had been accepted into Habitat for Humanity’s homeownership program. Since then everything has changed and a group of people have accepted me as part of a team that works with heart and determination to not only build homes, but raise money to build those homes. Your donation is put to good use!"
- Deb, Habitat Homeowner
"Habitat for Humanity is more than affordable housing. For my family and I, it is breaking what seemed to be an endless cycle. A cycle of housing instability, living in poverty, and toxic environments. Habitat will be providing a childhood home for my kids to grow up in which is something I always wanted for them. Not only for them to grow up in, but to feel safe with neighbors who I know well after helping build our homes together. "

"Habitat for Humanity means for me a place for new beginnings. New family, friends, and understanding. A sense of overwhelming gratitude for almost everyone you meet or work with. One place with so many people that have a special place in my heart now, forever."
