REDMOND HABITAT NEEDS YOUR
HELP!
There is more to building a home than swinging
a hammer. There is much preparation work to be done
before the home can be built. Habitat succeeds
because people who care make it succeed. Your time,
skills, financial support and prayers can bring
better housing to people in need.
Anyone with
or without building experience is welcome at our home
building sites.

Redmond Habitat for Humanity is a Christian
housing ministry, building homes with low-income
people who live in substandard conditions.
The philosophy of the Redmond Affiliate is that
the economically disadvantaged need capital, not
charity, and co-workers, not caseworkers, in order
to obtain a simple, decent home in a decent community.
The capital for building comes from gifts and
no-interest loans. These donations are made by
individuals, churches, corporations and
foundations.
Construction work is a cooperative effort
involving volunteers, staff and buyers of the home.
The home is then sold at NO PROFIT to home buyers
who pay back the total cost of the home, normally
over a 20 year mortgage period, at NO INTEREST. The
mortgage payments are then channeled back into a
fund that helps build homes for other families.
HfH is a volunteer, grass roots organization. We
offer one of the lowest administrative overheads of
any service organization. Your donation goes
directly to help buy land and build homes for
deserving families.
There are many ways you could make a difference!
Habitat would have funds to build one home if:
500 people pledged $8.35 per month for one year,
or
250 people pledged $16.75 per month for one year,
or
125 people pledged $33.50 per month for one
year.
