Welcome, do you like to swing a hammer, do you like to get dirty, or do you just like to work with your hands? Maybe, Habitat for Humanity would be a good mission for YOU! This is the Trinity Episcopal Paris's Site for Habitat for Humanity, we currently support the Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity with volunteers from our parish to build homes in the community.
A LITTLE ABOUT IOWA HEARTLAND Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity builds simple, affordable homes with Habitat families and volunteers. We serve Black Hawk, Bremer and Butler Counties.Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity focuses on home ownership as its solution to affordable housing. By offering no-interest mortgages and accepting sweat equity as a down payment we are able to offer affordable home ownership opportunities to families who would otherwise not qualify for a mortgage. Habitat invites people of all backgrounds, races and religions to build houses in partnership with families in need. Habitat has built more than 500,000 houses around the world, providing more than 1,500,000 people in more than 3,000 communities with safe, decent, affordable shelter. Habitat for Humanity International has been building homes around the world since 1976. Since 1990, Iowa Heartland has built 100 homes and is ready to continue building homes in our three county service area and around the world with our tithe to HFHI.
