Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, nondenominational Christian housing organization that welcomes all people to join in building simple, decent, affordable houses in partnership with those who lack adequate shelter.

Houses are sold with no profit made. Homeowners contribute "sweat equity" and house payments are recycled to build additional homes. Since 1976, Habitat has built more than 175,000 houses, providing shelter for nearly 900,000 people worldwide. Now at work in 100 countries, we are building a house every 26 minutes.
