Morris Habitat for Humanity Restore is The Store That Builds Homes!
Through volunteer labor and donations of money and materials, Morris Habitat for Humanity builds and rehabilitates houses in partnership with families in need. Habitat houses are affordable because there is no profit included in the sale price and no interest is charged on the mortgage. The family’s monthly mortgage payments go into a revolving fund which is used to build more houses.
In the next four years, Morris Habitat plans on serving over 200 families through new and rehab homebuilding, home preservation and international homebuilding programs. Volunteer visits will total over 45,000, and our Restore activity will keep another 3000 tons of reusable items out of landfills while providing funding to support our overhead. As advocacy increases, so will the evolution of families becoming homeowners, transforming communities and the economy in an upward direction.
