AmeriCorps

Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry. Habitat 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.

Habitat for Humanity’s work is accomplished at the community level by affiliates—independent, locally run, nonprofit organizations. Each affiliate coordinates all aspects of Habitat home building in its local area—fund-raising, building site selection, partner family selection and support, house construction and mortgage servicing.

Habitat National Service provides an opportunity for philanthropic individuals to serve at local Habitat affiliates with AmeriCorps National Direct and AmeriCorps Volunteers in Service to America, or VISTA, programs. Individuals are given the opportunity to do direct or indirect service in order to build affiliate capacity, engage communities, increase and lead volunteers and build and renovate homes in partnership with low-income families in need of safe and decent housing.
