What Will You Build?
Your support produces tangible results–a safe, decent and affordable home for a hardworking family in need. With your help, Habitat Newburgh succeeds in building strong neighborhoods through homeownership–the most basic building block of any vibrant community.
A decent place to live can remove barriers to opportunity, success, and health that might have been part of a family's life for years, if not generations. Habitat homeowners receive financial education, help build their houses, and pay an affordable mortgage. A decent place to call home and an affordable mortgage create a situation where homeowners can save more, invest in education, pursue opportunity and have more financial stability.
Habitat Newburgh serves as the general contractor on all its new and rehabilitation construction projects and does what no other business or government entity can do–leverage every dollar donated through planned use of volunteer labor and donated materials. For ever dollar received, at least 85 cents goes directly to our program costs.
“You always want a home. I always said when I have my children I want something better for them, I want to provide for them, I want them to have what I didn't have as a child. This house is my start.”
-Claribel, Habitat Homeowner
Your Gift Builds Strength, Stability, and Self Reliance
Because of YOU, our 100th family will move into their home alongside six Habitat homeowners on William Street and one more block has been transformed from blighted to bright.
With a gift from you today, we will launch our Bridging Blocks Project. This project unites our existing projects on S. Miller, Johnston, and William Streets to our early work on Dubois, N. Miller, and South Streets in an effort to connect homeowners and attract private developers, while increasing the tax base and property values. Two boarded-up buildings and four vacant lots will be transformed into beautiful homes for hard-working local families. Bridging blocks starts with YOU. We need your help to make it happen!
"A gift to Habitat Newburgh is a gift in perpetuity. Funds go directly to rehabbing and building our homes and therefore give our families a direct hand up." -Matt Arbolino, Executive Director
Thank you for building with Habitat Newburgh!
