Habitat for Humanity - Colville Valley Partners

Habitat for Humanity – Colville Valley Partners is part of a global, nonprofit housing organization operated on Christian principles that seeks to put God’s love into action by building homes, communities and hope. Habitat for Humanity – CVP is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally and worldwide through constructing, rehabilitating and preserving homes; by advocating for fair and just housing policies; and by providing training and access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all.

Habitat raises money, recruits volunteers, and constructs simple, decent houses for eligible low-income families. It sells these homes at cost with a long-term interest-free loan, working in partnership with the families who invest hundreds of hours of "sweat equity" in building their home and/or another Habitat home. With the philosophy that people need capital, not charity, and co-workers, not caseworkers, the vision of Habitat is to build or rehabilitate homes for people who have no other means of obtaining better shelter. The local housing shortage is critical, especially for decent yet affordable homes. While Habitat can't fully solve this problem, it can be one important part of the solution.

Habitat for Humanity – CVP has an open-door policy: All who believe that everyone needs a decent, affordable place to live are welcome to help with the work, regardless of race, religion, age, gender, political views or any of the other distinctions that too often divide people. In short, Habitat welcomes volunteers and supporters from all backgrounds and also serves people in need of decent housing regardless of race or religion. As a matter of policy, Habitat for Humanity International and its affiliated organizations do not proselytize. This means that Habitat will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must either adhere to or convert to a particular faith, or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.
