Habitat has built approximately 30,000 houses around the world, providing over 100,000 people with safe, decent, affordable shelter. Habitat houses are sold to partner families at no profit, financed with affordable, no-interest loans. The homeowners' monthly mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to build more houses. How Are the Partner Families Selected Families apply to local Habitat affiliates. A Family Selection Committee chooses homeowners based on their level of need, their willingness to become partners in the program and their ability to repay the loan.
Every affiliate follows a nondiscriminatory policy of family selection.
Neither race or religion is a factor in choosing the families that receive Habitat houses. Copyright 2001 Phelps County Community Partnership. All rights reserved. Web site created and maintained by Zcom .
