Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, nondenominational Christian
housing ministry. Habitat welcomes all people—regardless of
race, religion, ethnicity or any other difference—to build and repair simple,
decent, affordable houses with those who lack adequate shelter.
Habitat affiliates work locally in communities around the world to select and support homeowners,
organize volunteers and coordinate house building and repair.
Homeowners are selected based on their need for housing, their ability to repay a mortgage and their willingness to work in partnership
with Habitat.
Habitat does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, ethnicity or any other difference.
Habitat is able to make housing affordable
to low-income families because:
Houses are sold through a no-profit
mortgage.
Individuals, corporations, faith groups and
others provide vital financial support.
Homeowners and volunteers build or repair
under trained supervision.
