A Habitat home is a “hand-up,” not a handout—requiring no down payment, offering affordable mortgages, and tailoring payments to income levels. By making safe, decent, and affordable homeownership a reality, families are empowered to break the cycle of poverty and build happier, healthier and more productive lives for themselves and the communities in which they live. Habitat for Humanity Niagara, manages a portfolio of affordable homes, empowers volunteers and homeowners, and operates a social enterprise that includes three Habitat for Humanity Niagara ReStores.
