Who Is Marion County Habitat For Humanity?
Who: Marion County Habitat
for Humanity is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity
International. All of the funding raised to build houses
is done by local leadership through fundraisers, grants,
and individual donors and businesses.
What: Simple, decent and
affordable housing!
When: We build, weather
allowing, all year round. We have just hired a full time
Construction Manager to allow us to have regular build
times.
Where: We build in Marion
County only. If you are looking for information on other
Habitat Affiliates in WV please go: http://www.habitatwv.org/
Why: Our ministry was founded
on the conviction that every man, woman and child should
have a simple, decent place to live in dignity and
safety. Stable housing directly contributes to
educational achievement in children, health and safety,
and wealth creation. If you would like to learn more

How: Houses are built almost
entirely with volunteer labor from people just like YOU!
We also raise the money from people just like YOU! We
need upfront money to build the houses. Once the
families take over the homes we can use their house
payments to build more homes. More money is always
needed for us to build capacity and serve more people in
need! |
