Our location is 3833 Bragg Blvd. and are operated by an administrative staff, professional and support employees, and volunteers.

 

How does Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity work with the city or government?

​

Habitat asks legislators and housing regulators to increase support for affordable homeownership and decent housing. Habitat monitors public policies related to housing, community and international development. Habitat advocates for policies that will increase access to decent, affordable housing available to people around the world. Habitat accepts government funds as long as they have no conditions that would violate our principles or limit our ability to proclaim our

Christian identity. We also have created a partnership with the City of Fayetteville to build Oakridge Estates, and now The Central Campbellton Area formally known and B-Street. 

How does Habitat for Humanity homeownership work?

 

Families in need of decent, affordable housing apply for homeownership with their local Habitat for Humanity.

​

Each local Habitat’s family selection committee selects homeowners based on three criteria:

  • The applicant’s level of need.

  • Their willingness to partner with Habitat.

  • Their ability to repay a mortgage through an affordable payment plan.

​

Habitat’s homebuyers invest hundreds of hours of their own labor, called sweat equity, working alongside volunteers and other Habitat homeowners, in addition to paying an affordable mortgage and receiving financial education.

Habitat for Humanity follows a nondiscriminatory policy of family selection. Neither race nor religion is a factor in choosing Habitat’s homeowners.
