1 in every 8 families in Canada must choose between paying rent or buying food. We firmly believe that our homeownership plan is one of the best ways to break the cycle of poverty ensuring that no one has to choose between shelter or food.

At Habitat we provide “a hand up, not a handout”, All families are required to put in 500 hours of sweat equity, working side by side with volunteers to construct their own home, assisting on other builds or helping out in our ReStore or Office.
