NGO Overview, Mission, and Purpose: What We Are About and Who We Help
Here at Habitat for Humanity, we do our best to aid those who lack adequate shelter in building or repairing simple, decent, affordable houses. We welcome all people, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity or any other difference in the fight to end homelessness. We not only help those in need by providing housing but we also share with them good work ethic, as the homeowners sacrifice hundreds of hours into building their own homes. Houses are sold through a no-profit mortgage. Individuals, corporations and fight groups are vital in providing financial support, as homeowners and volunteers build or repair under trained supervision.

NGO "Bottom Line": How Me Make an Impact
Nearly 2 billion people around the world live in slum housing and over 100 million are homeless. Habitat for Humanity is needed to help eliminate poverty by providing simple, decent shelter to those in need. Families left homeless by natural disasters, war and civil unrest often face dire housing situations as they struggle to rebuild their lives. Habitat for Humanity's Disaster Response program provides shelter and housing solutions to help these families recover.
