About Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity

Our Mission: To eliminate poverty housing from the Twin Cities area and to make decent, affordable shelter for all people a matter of conscience.

An award-winning nonprofit housing developer, Twin Cities Habitat is committed to building the quality of life, health and prosperity of the region through the production and preservation of homeownership - because homes and families are the foundation of successful communities.

We are best known for our Homeownership program that builds and rehabs simple, quality homes in partnership with low-income families and the community. We sell the homes with affordable, zero percent interest mortgages, making a 30-year commitment to each new homeowner and to the community in which they live. In operation since 1985, Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity has built more than 700 homes in the seven-county metro area. We manage additional programs that preserve homeownership, helping families keep their homes.

We also preserve homeownership by helping low-income homeowners repair and maintain their homes through our A Brush with Kindness program and by assisting families living in the City of Minneapolis who are facing foreclosure or who have fallen behind in their mortgage payments through our Mortgage Foreclosure Prevention program.
