Habitat for Humanity:
Envisioning a world
where everyone has a
decent place to live
Building Dignity
Habitat builds houses alongside
families who demonstrate need
and willingness to partner with the
organization. Families invest hun-
dreds of hours of their own “sweat
equity” labor into the houses. Their
monthly mortgage payments help
fund the construction of more houses.
Inadequate shelter binds a family in
struggle. A Habitat home frees them
to enjoy self-reliance and self-respect.
Children benefi t, neighborhoods are
changed and communities are im-
proved.
Building Relationships
Modeled on biblical principles,
Habitat’s solution to the blight of
substandard housing is popular with
people of many political, profes-
sional, ethnic, religious and economic
backgrounds. This is the essence of
Habitat — inviting diverse individu-
als to fi nd common ground through
using a hammer, sharing a common
goal and building relationships as
well as houses.
Building Community
Habitat fosters reconciliation as
people join together to build houses.
In Northern Ireland, Protestants
and Catholics work side by side on
Habitat building sites. In Jordan and
Egypt, Muslims and Christians are
building bridges of hope. In South
Africa, black and white residents heal
wounds and form bond of friendship
with their neighbors. And in Cottage
Grove, we are working to make a dif-
ference in our own backyards.
Together we can build our community
into a place that welcomes everyone.
Together we can help our neighbors.
Together we can make the world a
better place, one home at a time.
