“To put faith in action by advocating for affordable housing on a
statewide basis and partnering with people and organizations to
enhance the health and development of Ohio Habitat for Humanity Affiliates.”
Habitat for Humanity of Ohio is an independent, charitable, faith-based housing
program dedicated to the elimination of poverty housing by building homes in partnership
with families in need. We build simple, decent, and affordable houses and provide
interest-free mortgages to families who would otherwise not be able to purchase
their own home. The Habitat program is about home ownership and providing a long-term
solution designed to break the poverty cycle.
In 2006, Ohio's Habitat affiliates completed 140 new, single-family
homeownership housing units valued at more than $16,000,000. To date, Ohio Habitat
affiliates have built more than 8,000 new, affordable housing units in the state.
Habitat affiliates typically serve households with incomes of 60% or less of the
Area Median Income.
In 2007, Ohio Habitat for Humanity affiliates
tithed a total of $591,787 to Habitat for Humanity International’s Fund
for Humanity. This amount provided funding to build approximately 140 Habitat
homes overseas (based on average cost of $4,200 per home).
