Habitat for Humanity meeting Nov. 28
November 25, 2016 · 0 Comments
People who dream of owning their own home might want to hear what Habitat for Humanity has to offer.
Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit housing organization that builds safe, affordable homes in partnership with families. These families buy the homes at fair market value, with zero per cent interest mortgages and monthly payments that never exceed 30 per cent of the gross household income.
In order to qualify, families must currently be living in conditions that are overcrowded, in bad repair, unsafe or unhealthy; be forced to pay more than 30 per cent of the gross household income on housing; be able to show a stable income history; be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident; be able to volunteer 500 hours to the actual building of homes; and be willing to be a public ambassador for Habitat for Humanity.
They will be holding an information session Nov. 28 at the Exchange at 55 Healey Rd. in Bolton.
For more information or to register, call 905-455-0883, ext. 601, or email [email protected]
