Nonprofit Overview

Mission: Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and homelessness worldwide and to making adequate, affordable shelter a matter of conscience and action. Habitat invites people from all faiths and walks of life to work together in partnership, building houses with families in need.
Programs: Construction services program - the organization builds homes for low income families through the extensive use of volunteers. No interest mortgages are issued on each home upon sale. Discounted interest is recorded and amortized over the life of the mortgage.
restore - the organization accepts donations of used household items and resells them. The target customers are the organization's partner families and other low income families. Net proceeds from the operation are used to support the construction services program.
the neighborhood revitalization initiative was designed to help u. S. Affiliates as they work to transform neighborhoods using a holistic approach. Habitat affiliates are joining residents, nonprofits, businesses, local governments, and communities of faith to create and implement a shared vision of revitalization. Neighborhood revitalization initiative affiliates tailor work being done in each neighborhood to meet its specific needs. Affiliates, in partnership with community organizations and agencies, will decide what work needs to be carried out in their community. A wide array of housing services can be tapped to help transform communities in need, such as: - new, energy-efficient house construction. - rehabilitation of vacant and foreclosed properties. - house repairs for existing low-income homeowners, through a brush with kindness and critical home repairs. - weatherization to make existing houses more energy efficient and affordable.
mission midland is a program designed to partner with local churches and their congregations to help support families in need of home repairs. During the year, 25 midland county families in need were served through mission midland.
