Habitat for Humanity is an organisation focused on long term development, aid and poverty alleviation, with the mission to build a safe environment where families and communities can thrive. Housing and shelter are the cornerstones of their work, believing happy and healthy homes require more than bricks and mortar – they need to be part of a thriving community to really benefit the families who live there. By empowering families to help build their homes, alongside volunteers, and pay an affordable mortgage, people develop the dignity and self-respect we all deserve.
