About | Habitat is a nonprofit, Christian housing ministry that believes that every man, woman and child should have a decent, safe and affordable place to live. We build and repair houses all over the world using volunteer labor and donations. Our partner families purchase these houses through no-profit, no-interest mortgage loans or innovative financing methods. |
Areas Served | Currently, more than 1,400 affiliates in the United States and about 70 national organizations around the world coordinate Habitat efforts to build, rehabilitate and repair homes with those who cannot access conventional home loans. Through their work, Habitat has served more than 800,000 families. Affiliates are community-level Habitat for Humanity offices that act in partnership with and on behalf of Habitat for Humanity International. Each affiliate coordinates all aspects of Habitat home building in its local area, including volunteer coordination. |
Typical Projects | Habitat has a wide range of volunteer opportunities. For detailed information about these opportunities, please visit the “Get Involved” section of our website at http://www.habitat.org/getinv. |
