Mission Statement
for Lamoille County Habitat for Humanity
Green Mountain Chapter
The mission of Lamoille County Habitat for Humanity is to improve the lives of families in our community through:
- Constructing simple, decent, affordable houses in partnership with families who currently live in unfit, indecent, inhuman conditions and have no possibility of obtaining a home through any conventional means.
- Selling these homes to the partner families for cost with no profit and no interest. Reinvesting the mortgage payments from these partner families to build additional simple, decent, affordable homes.
- Providing a means for people who have resources of time, money, or materials to channel them to the less fortunate, involving an ever-increasing number of people in the work of Lamoille County Habitat for Humanity.
- Tithing from donations to support the work of Habitat for Humanity International in countries with greater need than exists in the United States.
- Working with people of good conscience and other organizations with similar interests to raise awareness of housing issues so that everyone in the world can have the opportunity to have a simple, decent, affordable place to live.
