Habitat for Humanity

Habitat works with families in need of decent, affordable homes. Habitat doesn't give away homes - Habitat families help build their homes, then buy their home with a 0% interest mortgage. Their mortgage payments go into a revolving "Fund for Humanity" that helps other families build or improve places to call home.
