About us | At Habitat for Humanity MetroWest/Greater Worcester, our motto is “A hand up, not a handout.” We are dedicated to building houses with families, not for them. We partner with hardworking families who earn between 30 and 60% of the area median income and do not qualify for other homeownership programs. Not only do Habitat families pay for their homes through a monthly mortgage, they also put in between 400 and 500 hours of sweat equity prior to becoming homeowners. Habitat homes are built completely through donations and volunteer labor of individuals, organizations, businesses, and foundations throughout the MetroWest and Greater Worcester areas. |
