Our Mission
Old Colony Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to providing decent, affordable housing in partnership with families in need. Reaching across religious, cultural, and racial boundaries, we seek to restore a sense of community with the common goal of strong neighborhoods and dignity through home ownership.
Volunteers provide most of the labor, and individual and corporate donors provide money and materials to build Habitat houses. Partner families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor -- "sweat equity" -- into building their homes and the homes of others. Their mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to build more houses.
Communities Served
"Habitat has shown us that when people get together in a caring and cooperative way, wonderful things can be accomplished."
- Jimmy Carter, former US President and Habitat Supp |
