Mission Statement
To mobilize volunteers and community partners in building affordable housing and promoting homeownership as a means to breaking the cycle of poverty.
About This Cause
Homeownership is out of reach for many families because a down payment is often too difficult to save for, and interest charges make a mortgage more than many can afford. That's where we come in! Established in 1988, Habitat for Humanity Waterloo Region (HabitatWR) is a non-profit housing organization working to break the cycle of poverty by building simple, decent and affordable homes for hard-working, low-income families. This is all due to the love and support of volunteers and community partners. Focused on providing a hand up and not a hand out, HabitatWR partners with families who are willing volunteer 250 hours, per adult, of "sweat equity," and will repay a zero-down payment, affordable mortgage. ReStores are non-profit home improvement stores and donation centres that sell new and gently used cabinetry, furniture, home accessories, building materials, and appliances to the public at a fraction of the retail price...up to 80% off! Our ReStores cover 100% of HabitatWR's administrative costs so that all donated dollars go directly to our home building program.
