Habitat
for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity of South Brevard is a non-profit housing
organization seeking to eliminate poverty housing in South Brevard by making
simple, decent and affordable housing a matter of conscience and action. HFHSB
relies on volunteer labor (including the homeowner’s “sweat equity”) and tax
deductible donations of money and materials to build simple respectable homes.
Habitat houses are sold to partner families at no profit and are financed with
affordable zero interest loans. The homeowners’ monthly mortgage payments go
into a revolving Fund for Humanity which is used to pay for the cost of every
additional home built in South Brevard.

The Habitat program works because it empowers families by
offering a helping hand for a better tomorrow, today through the elimination
of poverty housing. The communities being built are offering children a stable
place to call home. HFHSB is asking the JLSB to help build one home in Faith
Landings.
