HABITAT FOR HUMANITY: how to participate.
WITH VIDEO AT THE END OF POST, SHOWING STEP BY STEP CONSTRUCTION OF HOUSE.
Nothing wrong with this feature, of course, otherwise I would not have recommended it. But first of all, I mean I am grateful for not having had the need to use it, and relieved to announce that our house is fully paid off, which gives us the emotional security, and because our home is a shelter against storms, … whatever they may be.
Hands, are required to build a house, so I present to you the hearts, where this idea originated in 76:
Millard and Linda Fuller, founders of Habitat for Humanity.
Now for the requirements that they ask you to be elegible for a new home:
Fill out the form of the entity, whether U.S. citizen or have applied for your permission to stay here (Green Card).
1-be living in an area, where they are offering this feature at the time, and believe me … they are numerous around the country.
2-have the need for a home or have eg broken pipes, poor heating, a leaky roof, many people living under one roof, unsafe or unsanitary conditions and have good credit.
3 – be willing to work 350 hours, and 175 of those hours being completed before being assigned to a specific house. The first 50 hours are to be completed by you and your family on any habitat home. You and the other occupants of the home must complete the final 50 hours on your own home.
| Household Size | Minimum Gross Income | Maximum Gross Income |
|---|---|---|
| 1-2 people | $24,000 | $31,000 |
| 3 people | $24,000 | $34,000 |
| 4 people | $27,000 | $38,000 |
| 5 people | $30,000 | $41,000 |
| 6 people | $33,000 | $44,000 |
| 7 people | $33,000 | $47,000 |
| 8 people | $33,000 | $50,000 |
You will have to pay at most $ 750 down payment toward closing costs and utility deposits by the actual house closing date.
If at first you are not accepted and circumstances change, you can always reapply again.
The purpose of this organization is building houses with the help of their own families, who otherwise would not be able to aquire this type of home and who meet the Habitat guidelines, regardless of their ethnicity or religious beliefs.
Since nobody can do it alone, but everyone can do something for someone, many noble and invaluable volunteers join the project all the time, and now all over the world.
Perhaps even in the future, you will volunteer for Habitat, or donate your time and energy in some part of the world, who knows …? Where there is a human soul or not, there is an opportunity to do good, and if you think you and too small or ineffective, it’s because you never slept in bed with a mosquito.
Agora todos os passos da construcao, ate’ o produto final.
Now every step of construction, until the final product. I think they are cute in the style called here the ‘Cottage’.
