Is Habitat for Humanity a government organization?
Habitat is not affiliated with any government, political party or other national entity. Habitat does not accept government funds for the construction or renovation of homes. However, we encourage governments to do what they can to help alleviate the suffering of all those who have no decent place to live. Habitat for Humanity welcomes partnerships with governments to help ‘set the stage’ for the construction of houses. Stage-setting funding and gifts might include land, houses for renovation, infrastructure for streets, utilities and administrative expenses.
