About Habitat For Humanity

Habitat for Humanity is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing the housing needs of low-income families. By mobilizing volunteers and resources, Habitat constructs, rehabilitates, and repairs homes to ensure safe, decent, and affordable housing for those in need. Partnering families contribute "sweat equity" by working on their homes and others, fostering a sense of ownership and community. In addition to building homes, Habitat also provides financial education and support to help families achieve long-term stability and independence. Through its efforts, Habitat for Humanity aims to break the cycle of poverty, improve living conditions, and strengthen communities worldwide.
