Our Mission
We are a faith-based housing ministry bringing people together to
build homes, communities, and hope in York.
Who We AreYork Habitat for Humanity is a volunteer driven, Christian housing ministry that builds safe, decent, and affordable homes in partnership with lower-income York County residents living in substandard housing.
Funded mainly by private donations, York Habitat provides a “hand up, not a hand out” by offering qualified families interest free, 30 year mortgages. With the completion of York Habitat’s 143rd home in 2024, over 750 local community members now live in Habitat homes throughout York County. By the end of 2025, we will celebrate the completion of our 145th home.
Since 1985, York Habitat has created over $7.8 million worth of new or rehabilitated affordable housing, which generates more than $383,000 in tax revenue. Over 8,950 volunteers work with York Habitat annually. |
