Dayton Ohio Habitat for Humanity, in partnership with God and all people of faith and good will, seeks to eliminate substandard housing in Montgomery County. We renovate or build new, decent and affordable housing that will strengthen individuals, their families and their neighborhoods through home ownership. Families apply to us to earn a house of their own. Once accepted into the program, our "Partner Families" work alongside our many volunteers to build their house. They put in 300 to 500 hours of "sweat" equity before earning their home, which is then sold to them for the cost of materials and any contracted work on a 20-year interest-free mortgage.
Accepting: construction materials, paint, appliances, office desks, file cabinets
