Our Mission

Our Mission

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

Our Vision

A world where everyone
has a decent place to live.

The Habitat Program

Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity builds permanent affordable housing for low-income families by mobilizing a cooperative volunteer effort. RVHFH and community volunteers find the site, raise the funds, and select a family for each new home. The selected family works side-by-side with RVHFH and community volunteers on the construction of their new home. 

The family purchases the home upon completion with an affordable mortgage. To ensure the continued availability of affordable housing in the community, the deeds to the properties are restricted.

Who We Serve

Raritan Valley Habitat works exclusively with low- and moderate-income households who have incomes certified at or below 50% area median income (low-income) or 80% or below area median income (moderate-income). In addition to meeting these income guidelines, families must show that they:
  • are willing to contribute time and effort toward the construction of their home and Habitat’s mission
  • are legal residents
Future homeowners are selected via a non-discriminatory process.

Habitat for Humanity and its affiliate organizations will not proselytize. Nor will Habitat work with entities or individuals who insist on proselytizing as part of their work with Habitat. This means that Habitat will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must adhere to or convert to a particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.
