How Habitat Works
Habitat works when everyone works together. From donors to volunteers to hard-working homeowners, here's how we bring people together to build homes and communities.
Our Programs
Each and every day, people all over the world (and across Hawaii) partner with Habitat for Humanity to offer families strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter. Through this partnership, each family has the opportunity to build and purchase their own decent home with an affordable non-profit mortgage.
Homeownership Program
Our primary program that helps families build and purchase their own homes through sweat equity and affordable financing. Families partner with Habitat to construct their homes alongside volunteers.
Critical Home Repair
We help existing homeowners maintain safe, decent housing through critical repairs and accessibility modifications. This program keeps families in their homes and communities stable.
Why Homeownership Matters in Hawaii
The affordable housing crisis on Oahu is urgent. Working families in Hawaii face the highest housing costs in our nation. Even before the coronavirus pandemic, 1 in 5 households in Hawaii were spending half or more of their income on housing.
