Habitat for Humanity - Oconee County HFH

Homeownership program: families in need of a decent place to live build safe and affordable homes in partnership with us. Habitat houses are modestly sized. They are large enough for the homeowner family's needs, but small enough to keep construction and maintenance costs affordable. By using the labor of volunteers and prospective homeowners,employing efficient building methods, keeping house sizes modest, using donated construction materials and appliances, and issuing no-profit loans,habitat makes its houses affordable for low-income families to purchase. Affordable homeownership helps create the conditions that free families from instability,street fear and encourage self-reliance and confidence. Studies show that strong and stable households are foundational to child development and growth. When a home fosters-instead of hinders-health and safety,families can flourish. Owning an affodable home also allows homeowners to lift up career growth. During fiscal year 2023, Habitat completed and sold seven homes to families in need.
