Homeownership -- A Hand Up, Not A Handout
Through tax-deductible donations of money and material, by utilizing volunteer labor and with the help of future homeowners (partner families), HFHWC builds and rehabilitates decent, affordable homes. Habitat houses are sold to partner families at no profit and are financed with affordable zero percent interest mortgages. The homeowner's monthly mortgage payments are paid back into a revolving "fund for humanity" account which is used to build more homes in Washington County for eligible homeowners.
