- Habitat for Humanity mobilizes volunteers and community partners to build affordable housing and promotes homeownership as a means to breaking the cycle of poverty.

Habitat houses are special places for a special reason: They are built with love in mortar joints. It is a love of volunteer partners who pick up hammers to help build the homes; it is the love of donor partners who contribute”sweat equity” in constructing their own homes.
