Get Involved with Habitat
for Humanity
How Does The Program
Work?
Each family selected must:
-
Have a source of income and be able to make
monthly mortgage payments;
-
Be living in substandard housing;
-
Have a desire to own a home;
-
Be in a low-income range; and
-
Be willing to contribute hundreds of hours of
"sweat equity."
Each Habitat family purchases their new house on a
20-year, no-interest mortgage. Typically, a home mortgage is considerably lower
than a family's previous rent payments.
Habitat homeowners pay back the mortgage to Garland
County Habitat for Humanity. Mortgage payments are placed in a revolving
"Fund for Humanity" to finance the construction of even more houses.
You may also make a tax deductible contribution to
the Garland County affiliate which will be used to benefit our local community.
How Can I Help?
Get involved in Habitat locally by contributing time,
talents, and money.
If you have special skills or talent that could be
put to use during construction or if you would like to assist in the
construction of our next home, please contact us for date, time and location of
our next Habitat project. We need your help.
You may also make a tax deductible contribution to
the Garland County affiliate which will be used to benefit our local community.
