Habitat for Humanity in East Weymouth, MA, is dedicated to building homes and changing lives by partnering with low or moderate-income families in need of housing. Their program involves various stages, starting from land acquisition to the construction of safe, affordable homes with the help of community volunteers and donated resources. Families selected as partners contribute their time and effort to the construction process while also attending essential homeownership and financial classes. Ultimately, homes are sold to these families through affordable mortgages, with revenue from home sales reinvested to support the building of more homes for additional families in need.
