We Support Hamiltonians
We bring communities together to help families build strength, stability, and independence through affordable homeownership.
With the help of volunteers, donors, and Habitat homeowners, we build and rehabilitate decent and affordable homes, from single-family houses to multi-unit developments. We don’t give away free homes - the people who partner with us pay an affordable mortgage geared to their income and volunteer 500 hours with us. Our model of affordable homeownership bridges a gap for low-income, working families, by providing them with the opportunity to purchase their own home.
We Re-invest in the Community
Beyond serving current Habitat homeowners, our model is built with a forward-thinking scope. Monthly mortgage payments made by homeowners get deposited into a revolving fund, held by Habitat for Humanity Hamilton. This fund, referred to as The Fund for Humanity, is reinvested directly back into the Home Build Program, helping us help even more families in need.
We Educate our Youth
Our Youth Build Program provides experiential learning opportunities to secondary students throughout the community. Habitat Hamilton has been providing experiential learning opportunities to students for over ten years, doubling our build-sites as real-world classrooms.
