Otero County HFH is a locally
run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit,
ecumenical Christian housing organization. Habitat for Humanity works in
partnership with people in need to build and renovate decent, affordable
housing. The houses then are sold to those in need at no profit and with
no interest charged.
Volunteers provide most of the labor, and individual and corporate
donors provide money and materials to build Habitat houses. Partner
families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor - "sweat
equity" - into building their homes and the homes of others. Their
mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to
build more houses.
Every home is 'Energy Star efficient to help lower the families
utilities bill.
