We Build More Than Houses

At Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia we build more than houses...we transform lives. As an organization, our goal is to eliminate poverty and homelessness from the face of the earth by building adequate and basic housing.

In Northern Virginia, we have been working towards that goal by facilitating the dream of homeownership for 51 families who would not have been able to do it on their own. As our mission continues, we are ensuring that all of our words and actions are for the ultimate purpose of putting shelter on the hearts and minds of everyone in our community. Our main wish is for poverty housing to become socially, politically and religiously unacceptable in Northern Virginia and throughout the world.

We are excited to be continuing our mission as we move forth with our goal to build 49 houses by 2010. We have embraced the changing times and have overcome many challenges and we are proud to say that our current condominium project, Westbrook Forest, is now underway. Upon its completion and thanks to your help, 12 deserving families will have homes to call their own, thus bringing us one step closer in our mission to provide simple, decent and affordable housing to those in need.
