Hosanna Industries Charity Profile
Hosanna Industries’ new construction and home rehabilitation programs offer safe, habitable housing to low and very low income, elderly and single-parent households without regard to race or creed. Since 1990, it has served over 1600 households and provided over 100 homes across the nation.
We help a whole spectrum of people. The common denominator is their dire poverty. A typical client is a 61-year-old woman living by herself on an income of $14,000 a year or less.
Though nonsectarian in approach, Hosanna Industries draws its mission from the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The cry "Hosanna!" that greeted Jesus on his entry into Jerusalem means, "Rescue me now, Lord, please!" Hosanna Industries is not just an economic development agency, though its programs do promote home ownership among families living in deplorable conditions. And though its rehabilitation program leaves homes looking better, it is not simply a neighborhood beautification initiative.
Hosanna Industries’ interests are far more fundamental. We rebuild roofs where buckets once collected the rainfall, make homes easier for elderly people to care for, paint houses suffering from years of poverty and build wheelchair ramps for the homebound. We meet the housing needs of families living in old trailers patched together with duct tape and cardboard boxes.

Hosanna Industries Volunteer Information
Volunteers enable us to get the work done--hammering the nails into the siding, placing the roof shingles, drywalling the framing of a room! It gets busy around here. That is why we need YOU. Hosanna Industries is able to help so many needy families because people like you care about giving a little bit of time to help a family whose home is in disrepair.
We have hosted over 120,000 volunteers who have helped us help over 1,600 families. We have linked prayerful hands and gathered together in the presence of God to witness great miracles. Together, we have traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to help needy families throughout Western Pennsylvania and across the nation.
Hosanna Industries can offer many opportunities to you or your volunteer group. We even have a Volunteer Dormitory, just for you. You can stay at our campus if you are traveling from out of town to participate in one of our exciting mission trips. God’s work is still everyone’s business, and we hope you will find the right volunteer opportunity for you.
