What is Habitat for Humanity’s Home Building Program?

A nonprofit, Christian housing ministry.
We believe that every person should have a decent, safe and affordable place to live.
We build and repair houses in Adams and Juneau Counties WI. using volunteer labor and donations.
Our partner families purchase these houses through innovative financing methods such as USDA 502 Direct Loan Program.

Through volunteer and skilled labor and donations.
Homeowners invest hundreds of hours of their own labor into building their Habitat house and the houses of others and volunteering at the ReStore.
Habitat houses are sold to partner families at fair market value (appraised value) and financed with affordable loans.
The homeowners’ monthly mortgage payments and sale proceeds are used to build still more Habitat houses.

Families in need of decent shelter apply to local Habitat affiliates.
Our Family Selection Committee reviews potential homeowners based on their level of need, their willingness to become partners in the program and their ability to repay the loan.
We follow a nondiscriminatory policy of family selection and equal opportunity housing laws.
