Habitat for Humanity - South Shore HFH

The organization pursues its mission by building homes using donated land, supplies, volunteer labor, contributed funds and properties obtained for minimal cost. The organization then sells these homes at no more than cost plus the value of the donated materials to selected, low-income families. The land is typically donated by cities and towns and, frequently, these donations subject the home sale to a maximum selling price. The organization provides the recipient families with no cash down payment, no-interest financing. Families contribute "sweat equity" in their homes or succeeding homes. During the year ended june 30, 2023, the organization did not sell any homes. At june 30, 2023, two homes were substantially complete but were formally sold in september 2023, subsequent to year-end.

During the year ended june 30, 2023, the organization started a new program called critical home repair to assist qualified seniors, veterans and families who are struggling to maintain their home. Expenses relating to this program consisted of donated services valued at $15,468.
