Our Vision
Habitat for Humanity of Key West and Lower Florida Keys, Inc. strives to eliminate substandard housing and provide decent, low cost, and affordable housing through new home construction, restoration and emergency residential repairs for the economically disadvantaged. Habitat for Humanity is in the process of implementing its plan to eliminate substandard housing in the Lower Keys and Key West. This will be achieved through fundraising activities, land donations, gifts, grants, and adopt-a-house programs with individual, church, business, and corporate sponsors.
Habitat works to make home ownership affordable for people willing to invest their time and effort. Habitat for Humanity builds and rehabilitates homes using donated resources: volunteer labor, management expertise and tax deductible donations of money and materials.
Habitat homes are earned by partner families who invest sweat equity hours working on Habitat projects. Partner families make reasonable, no-interest monthly mortgage payments to Habitat, which go into a revolving fund that supports the construction of more new affordable homes in our communities.
