Our Work

Habitat Northern Virginia has built 50 homes in the last 15 years. Today we have the capacity to build many single-family homes, town homes, or duplexes in a year, and will soon incorporate condominiums thanks to our volunteers and sponsors. We have grown to an affiliate with 13 staff members and a strong Board of Directors.

At Habitat, volunteers continue to inspire us and our sponsors ensure that we can build more affordable homes for the Northern Virginia community. If you have ever thought about volunteering your time or making a tax-deductible contribution, now is a great time.

A Habitat home is a dream come true! When you work on a Habitat house, you'll probably meet the people who will make it their home. This is because Habitat homeowners are required to invest 300 to 500 hours of "sweat equity" helping build their home. And their no interest mortgage payments are recycled to build more Habitat houses.

Habitat welcomes individuals of all faiths to participate in its mission. There is no discrimination based on religion, race, gender or age for any activities associated with this program. All recipients of housing are selected based upon need without regard to race or religious preference.

We believe you'll find involvement with Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia a deeply satisfying experience. Thank you for your interest in helping us build homes and realize dreams in Northern Virginia.
