Mission:

Habitat for Humanity is an independent, charitable, faith-based housing program dedicated to the elimination of poverty housing by building homes in partnership with families in need. We build simple, decent, and affordable houses and provide interest-free mortgages to families who would otherwise not be able to purchase their own home. The Habitat program is about home ownership and providing a long-term solution designed to break the poverty cycle.

San Diego Habitat for Humanity, Inc. is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a non-profit, Christian, ecumenical organization that offers families in need a hand up, not a handout. Our mission is to eliminate poverty housing by building homes and selling them to low-income families with a 25-30-year, 0%-interest mortgage. We believe that all people deserve a simple, decent home on terms they can afford.
