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.
