…becomes a reality for families in need through the work and commitment of Habitat for Humanity of Johnson County, a non-profit organization that builds and sells safe affordable homes in partnership with limited income families and the Johnson County Community.
Our homeownership program offers a hand up – not a handout. In addition to monthly mortgage payments, homeowners volunteer 200-400 hours (called “sweat equity”) to build their home and the homes of other Habitat owners.
Habitat homes are built through donations of money, material and volunteer time. They are sold to each homeowner at cost, financed with an interest-free mortgage. Mortgage payments are used to further the mission of Habitat and serve more families.
Thanks to support of volunteers, donors and partner families, Habitat for Humanity builds more than just houses, we build hope and community.
Putting faith into action, Habitat for Humanity of Johnson County promotes family stability by providing safe, affordable housing solutions to qualified individuals and families. In partnership with our community, we work toward our ultimate goal of eliminating substandard housing throughout the county.
