About Habitat for Humanity-Lima Area, Inc...
Habitat for Humanity-Lima Area, Inc. is a
locally run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a non-profit
Christian Housing organization. Habitat for Humanity works in partnership
with people in need to build and renovate decent, affordable housing.
The houses are then sold to those in need at no profit and with no interest
charged. Volunteers provide most of the labor, and individual and
corporate donors provide money and materials to build Habitat houses. Partner
families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor--"sweat equity"--
into building their homes and the homes of others. Their mortgage
payments go into a revolving fund that is used to build more houses.
