What is Habitat for
Humanity International?
Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, ecumenical
Christian housing ministry. HFHI seeks to eliminate poverty housing
and homelessness from the world, and to make decent shelter a matter
of conscience and action.
Habitat invites people of all backgrounds, races and religions to
build houses together in partnership with families in need.

What is the history
of the local Habitat Affiliate?
Since 1994, Habitat for Humanity of Warren
County has constructed and sold six homes in Warren, PA. Of
these, the first two have been paid off and the remaining four
continue to make monthly mortgage payments to the affiliate.
Habitat homes generally cost a homeowner between $60,000 to $65,000
Homeowner partners are selected based upon need for housing,
financial criteria, and their ability and commitment to provide
"sweat equity." The eligibility is determined at the time of
the application and throughout the process of construction and until
the house is sold to the homeowner partner. ...more
