Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio View Charity Profile

Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio, Inc. (HFHSA) is an ecumenical Christian non-profit housing organization working in partnership with God's people in need to build simple, decent and affordable houses without interest or profit, thereby witnessing God's love in action.

We work with very low-income families whose total income is generally 25% - 60% of the area median income. Families are accepted to the Habitat program based on their need, ability to pay a 0% interest mortgage, and their willingness to partner. Applicants must be residents of Bexar County. Families spend a minimum of 300 hours investing in "sweat equity" where they support and help build their own house and that of their neighbors. Monthly mortgage payments average $375 to $425.

Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio Volunteer Information

At HFHSA, volunteers are the heart of our organization. From board members to those directly involved in construction, volunteers make the difference.

More than 10,000 volunteers assist in various HFHSA activities each year. Our volunteers build houses, raise funds, work in our administrative offices, provide lunch for volunteers at the work site, work at our Home Centers and do much much more.

As a matter of fact, volunteers are the reason Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio is able to build affordable, decent houses. Construction of Habitat houses is made possible through the labor of our homeowners working side by side with dedicated volunteers every year.
