Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity

Description

Since 1990, Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity has operated in Black Hawk, Butler, Bremer, and Buchanan counties, building homes for homebuyers and completing critical home repairs in owner-occupied homes. We are dedicated to eliminating substandard housing through construction, rehabilitation, and preserving homes; by advocating for fair housing policies; and by providing access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Historically, IHHFH’s two primary programs-affordable homeownership and critical home repairs-have served individuals that demonstrate a need (earning below 80% of the area’s median income), an ability to pay for their home/repair, and a willingness to partner with IHHFH (completing 300 hours of sweat equity and homebuyer education courses).
