“Habitat for humanity las vegas, inc. (habitat) a not-for-profit organization located in las vegas, nevada was established in 1990. Habitat's purpose is to build low cost houses with the help of the homeowner families, which are transferred to the families at no profit and financed by habitat with affordable, no-interest loans.”

“Since 1991, habitat for humanity las vegas (hfhlv) has been building affordable housing in the las vegas community and has provided safe, secure shelter for over 117 local low-to-moderate income families - 406 people, including 257 children - while also completing 56 neighborhood revitalization projects in the same areas in which we built homes. Hfhlv operates autonomously from habitat for humanity international with its own local board of directors, funding sources and strategic goals for lifting families out of poverty in clark county. We bring people together to build homes, communities, and hope. We meet the needs of the low-to-moderate income families today while transforming their lives for years to come. We focus on building entire communities on previously vacant in-fill lots in clark county; redevelopment zones not suitable for a private developer. Then, using a rigorous selection, education and financial coaching process, we fill the homes with families who become successful homeowners. Hfhlv is not just about the construction of homes. We are about successful homeownership through careful selection of partner families, responsible lending and ongoing support. We invest in the families through financial literacy, home maintenance programs, long-term credit counseling and referrals to community services. Homeownership leads to other quality of life outcomes-improved health, safety, education, and financial opportunity. The gift of a home means so much more than a roof over someone's head. Homeownership is often a catalyst to wealth building, and its impact grows over time with each generation as we break down barriers of limited housing supply, restricted access to credit, and systemic inequities, especially for households of color or single women. Our approach to housing is unique as we provide a solution to the root cause of generational poverty and break its cycle. In addition to making the dream of affordable home ownership a reality, we improve existing homes through our critical home repair program for those impacted by age, disability or family circumstances that are hindered to afford important home maintenance for sustaining, preservation, and safety. Together we can provide a brighter future for families and entire communities, giving those who need it most a "hand up" versus a "hand out."”
