About |
Habitat for Humanity in Nassau County, NY Inc., (HFHNC), established in 1992, is a local non-profit (501(c)3) affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International. We are an ecumenical organization that seeks to address affordable housing needs by providing simple affordable homes for hard working low income families in Nassau County. Persons of all beliefs are encouraged to join our efforts. We are committed to the development of our communities and the empowerment of families through our housing ministry. We rely on individuals, corporations and foundations for financial support and accept government assistance.
In addition to building houses, HFHNC seeks to make affordable housing "a matter of conscience". With that in mind, our organization sends speakers to local schools and universities, corporations and businesses. We seek to spread the word about Habitat for Humanity and energize individuals and groups to take on the challenge of addressing housing issues in Nassau County, NY. The HFHNC construction site provides a safe harbor where persons of diverse backgrounds reach across barriers of color, class, religion or language to build something positive together.
Our Vision: A world where everyone has a decent place to live.
United in Mission: Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope.
