**About Habitat for Humanity**

Habitat for Humanity is one of the most trusted and recognized non-profit brands in the world. As a homebuilder and developer, Habitat brings the community together to help families build strength, stability and independence through affordable homeownership. With the help of sponsors, donors, community partners and volunteers, we build homes alongside future Habitat homeowners to provide a solid foundation for better, healthier futures. Families purchase their homes with no down payment and no interest, and mortgage payments never exceed more than 30 percent of each family’s total household income.

Habitat helps families who hold essential jobs in the community, such as healthcare aides, social workers, teachers’ aides and construction workers, who would not otherwise qualify for a traditional mortgage. In 2023, Habitat delivered more than $10 million in affordable housing, with plans for an additional $24 million underway.

Habitat Southern Alberta also operates one of the largest and most successful ReStore operations in Canada. The ReStore is a social enterprise that sells new and gently used furniture, appliances, and building materials. Products are donated by businesses and households and proceeds from the sale of these items support Habitat. With three retail outlets (two in Calgary and one in Medicine Hat) and an online store, our ReStores are a large enterprise with more than 40 staff and revenues targeted at $6M, contributing $1.8M to Habitat’s mission.

Habitat was established in 1990 and has built in 37 communities across Southern Alberta. Habitat has partnered with more than 385 families, affecting the lives of more than 1,150 children.
