Habitat for Humanity's main slogan is "Giving people a hand up not a hand out." Habitat is about providing adequate housing for everyone while also holding people accountable. They help people by only having the home owners pay for the materials to build the house not the labor which greatly reduces the cost. Homeowners have to go through a rigorous application program to even be considered to get a house.
