Welcome
Chaffee County Habitat for Humanity (CCHFH)
is a local 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 are then 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.
