The Habitat for Humanity organization works to provide adequate housing for everyone while also holding them accountable. Homeowners only pay for the materials to build the house, not the labor, which greatly reduces the cost. Their mission is about, "Giving people a hand up, not a hand out." Homeowners have to go through a rigorous application program to be considered to have a house built.
