Evergreen Habitat for Humanity

EHFH in actionEvergreen Habitat for Humanity works to break the cycle of generational poverty and to revitalize Clark County neighborhoods by providing stable, permanent housing to low-income families.

The mortgage payments made by partner families are placed in a revolving fund used to build future Habitat homes.

A self-sustained affiliate of Habitat International, Evergreen Habitat has contributed 23 homes for 97 individuals to the over 500,000 homes Habitat has built worldwide.
