Mission: We put god's love into action by building homes, communities and hope.
Programs: Build and renovate homes for sale to low income partner families and hold zero-interest mortgages. 13 homes were under construction as of june 30, 2017.
the organization also provides its "a brush with kindness" (abwk) program. Abwk is a nationwide effort to serve low-income homeowners who struggle to maintain the exterior of their homes. Groups of volunteers work alongside the homeowner to revitalize a home's exterior.
the organization operates two restores with locations in wilmington and middletown, delaware. These restores are retail outlets where quality used and surplus building materials, furniture, and appliances are sold at a fraction of normal prices. The materials sold by the restores are usually donated from building supply stores, contractors, demolition crews or from individuals who wish to show their support for the organization. In addition to raising funds, the restores help the environment by rechanneling good, usable materials into use. The proceeds from the restores help the organization fund the construction of houses within the community.
