The mission statement of Habitat for Humanity is Seeking to put Godâs love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope. Homes are built using volunteer labor and Habitat makes no profit on the sales.
Founded in 1976, Habitat for Humanity International has since grown to become a global nonprofit working in more than 70 countries, including Canada. The Habitat movement first spread to Canada in 1985, when the countryâs first Habitat home was built in Winkler, Manitoba.
