Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity

Our Vision: We see a Twin Cities region where hard-working families can own homes in healthy neighborhoods with access to jobs, transportation, and quality schools. We will help make decent, affordable housing a matter of our collective character – by continuing to build and preserve homes, by supporting families, and by engaging the community in our mission. Our Mission: To eliminate poverty housing from the Twin Cities and to make decent, affordable shelter for all people a matter of conscience. Our Programs: Best known for our Homeownership program, where volunteers build and rehab simple, quality homes in partnership with low-income families and the community. We sell the homes with affordable mortgages, making a multi-year commitment to each new homeowner and to the community in which they live. We also preserve homeownership by helping low-income homeowners repair and maintain their homes through our A Brush with Kindness program and by assisting families living in the City of Minneapolis who are facing foreclosure, or who have fallen behind in their mortgage payments, through our Mortgage Foreclosure Prevention program. Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity brings people together to create and preserve homeownership in our neighborhoods, to partner with hard-working, low-income families to be successful homeowners, and to inspire action that promotes affordable housing for everyone in our community.
