An emerciv® Business: Habitat for Humanity of Monroe County

Habitat/Monroe is one of over 1000 affiliates of Habitat for Humanity International, a witness to Christian concern for the housing needs of people all over the world. Each affiliate raises funds, buys building materials, and uses volunteer labor to construct homes. The finished home is then sold to a family in need of decent housing. In this way Habitat forms a partnership between people with resources and those who are less fortunate. Habitat is not a “give-away” program. It provides an opportunity for people from many walks of life to take a hammer in their hands and work together to provide simple, decent, affordable homes in our community. Habitat is a “Hand Up” not a “Hand Out.”
