“Home Sweet Home” is more than just a phrase. It speaks to the heart of what Habitat for Humanity does every single day.
Habitat believes that everyone deserves a place to call home—a place that’s safe, stable, and affordable. By offering affordable homeownership opportunities, Habitat helps families break through the barriers that often stand in the way. Because Habitat mortgages are set at no more than 30% of a homeowner’s income, families are able to not just move in, but to stay, grow, and build lasting memories in a home they can truly call their own.
But “Home Sweet Home” doesn’t stop at new keys and fresh starts. Through Habitat’s home repair programs, we help seniors like Robin to remain in the homes they love, and allow families to lower their utility costs. These programs also support homeowners with limited incomes in preserving their greatest financial asset.
Thank you for your continued support of Habitat for Humanity, and for families like Robin’s. Together, let’s keep making “Home Sweet Home” a reality for more families across our communities.
Be a part of Veterans Build 2022 with a team of 10 volunteers!
The cost to sponsor a team of 10 is $2,500 – which covers the costs for materials and supplies needed for construction of the home. If your organization is unable to cover the cost, we will add you to our wait list and notify you once we have a sponsor to cover the costs.
Home Sweet Home

Your support turns hope into reality. With your help, even more families can find the stability of a home with an affordable mortgage, and the peace of mind that a well repaired home brings.
