Habitat for Humanity of Sarpy County |
|
Habitat for Humanity of Sarpy County is a
locally run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a
nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing organization. Habitat for
Humanity works in partnership with people in need to build and renovate
decent, affordable housing. The houses then are sold to those in need at
no profit and with no interest charged.
|
|
Because the Sarpy Habitat receives no government funding, it relies on
donations of labor, cash, materials and
services to build homes for low-income
families. Faith based communities,
businesses, organizations, foundations and
individuals provide the funding necessary to
build houses. About 400 volunteer
hours
provide the labor. Partner
families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor - "sweat equity" -
into building
their homes
and the homes of others. Their
mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to
build more houses. For information on becoming a
family partner, call us at 292-6560.
