Who is Cumberland County Habitat for Humanity?

Cumberland County Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit corporation building affordable homes which low income families can purchase through interest-free mortgages. Home ownership is open to all races and religions. It serves the communities of Cumberland County, New Jersey. The principal cities are Bridgeton, Millville, and Vineland.

We are an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, an ecumenical Christian housing ministry that seeks to eliminate poverty housing and make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action. Habitat partners with local churches, organizations, businesses, individuals, and local government agencies to build affordable homes for families in need. 

Homes are built by volunteers and sold to low income families at no profit.. Cumberland County Habitat lends the money to purchase the home in the form of a no interest mortgage. The proceeds from the mortgage, along with donations are used to finance new Habitat construction in Cumberland County.

Donations come in all types - money, time, and materials. Individuals, churches, and businesses donate to the homes.
