Some Statistics on homeownership
- Children of homeowners are 116% more likely to graduate from college.
- 25% more likely to graduate from high school.
- 59% more likely to become homeowners themselves.
- Homeownership is the single greatest wealth builder in society.
Habitat houses are built with a contribution of three hundred and fifty hours of “sweat equity” labor on the part of the soon-to-be Homeowner. By investing themselves in the building process, Habitat families gain self-reliance, self-esteem, and new skills and learn to care for their new home.
