Need

These homes are right here in the Southern Crescent. SCHFH welcomes your help to eliminate poverty housing and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action.
(Mickey Desai/SCHFH)
The Family Selection Committee rates your level of need compared to that of other financially qualified applicants. Demonstration of need may include any of the following: overcrowding, paying a high percentage of your income on housing or utilities, health issues (such as a leaky roof, lead paint, mold, or pest infestation), or whether there’s a safe place for children to play outside.  
Habitat follows a very strict nondiscrimination policy regarding gender, family/marital status, sexual orientation, religion, skin color, ethnic background, country of origin, age and disability. We do not discriminate in hiring employees or in selecting homeowners.

Although we are a Christian organization, we do not seek to convert our volunteers or our homeowners. Around the world and within the U.S., we serve those in need, whoever they may be. We gratefully welcome help from all who want to join our fight to make simple, decent housing a matter of conscience.

Government Funding
SCHFH houses are funded in a number of ways. For some of the homes we build in Claton County, we receive funding assistance from the Clayton County Board of Commissioners, through a HOME Investment Partner Act [HOME] Program grant, provided to Clayton County by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development [HUD].
