Habitat for Humanity in Nassau County, New York (HFHNC) is an independent affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, operating in Nassau County since 1991. The organization focuses on providing affordable housing solutions to low-income families in Nassau County through new home construction and rehabilitation projects. HFHNC operates under a partnership housing model where families in need work alongside volunteers to build their own homes. Selected homeowners are required to contribute “sweat equity” hours and participate in financial literacy and homeownership education programs. The organization offers zero-interest mortgages to qualified families, making homeownership more accessible. The organization maintains a ReStore retail outlet in Freeport, New York, which sells donated new and gently used furniture, appliances, and building materials. Proceeds from the ReStore support the organization’s building programs and operational costs. HFHNC collaborates with local businesses, faith communities, and civic organizations to fund and execute its housing projects. Through its programs, HFHNC has helped numerous Nassau County families achieve homeownership, contributing to community revitalization efforts across the region. The organization relies on volunteer labor, monetary donations, and material contributions to fulfill its mission of providing decent, affordable housing to families in need.
