What does Habitat for Humanity do?
Habitat for Humanity, is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry, that works in partnership with families that need to improve their living conditions. Habitat challenges local individuals, churches, businesses and charitable organizations to provide the funding required to build affordable and energy efficient homes. Habitat helps partner families obtain low interest mortgage loans with affordable monthly payments.

Need varies from family to family. The level of need is determined by our Family Selection & Support Committee. Some examples of need are: not enough living space or bedrooms for your family, home needs major repairs or is unsafe, you are temporarily living with friends or family, cost (typically rent) is not affordable (over 30% of gross income), or you are unable to obtain a conventional mortgage.
