Own a Habitat Home

Habitat for Humanity - New York City builds affordable, quality "green" homes for hardworking, low-income New Yorkers.

We build in all five boroughs and serve families who have been living in substandard or overcrowded housing conditions or who have a severe rent burden (pay more than 50 percent of household income for rent).
