Habitat for Humanity Australia
Through shelter, we empower. Habitat for Humanity vision is of a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live.
We believe it all starts at home
At Habitat for Humanity Australia, we believe a stable, secure home creates the foundation for change. A safe home gives people the opportunity to be healthier, happier, and more secure, and for children to be better nourished and better educated. We believe building a decent home provides much more than bricks and mortar – it provides real hope for the future.
We provide a hand-up, not a hand-out
We don’t give hand-outs; we give people hand-ups by building homes in partnership with families in Australia and overseas. We work with the most vulnerable families to build new homes transforming lives, and support the development of housing finance and construction markets so that more working poor families can access affordable and safe housing.
We do more than just build houses
We not only build homes, we build communities. We address water supply and sanitation issues and in some communities provide health and educational services – like teaching financial literacy and livelihood training. This is vital knowledge communities can share with others. It’s a ‘pay it forward’ model and the beginning of generational change.
Mission: At Habitat for Humanity Australia, we believe a decent home provides much more than bricks and mortar. It’s the foundation for the future, giving families the opportunity to be healthier, happier and more secure, and leads to stronger communities that can grow and sustain themselves.
Vision: A world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live.
