Lafayette Habitat for Humanity (LHFH), one of more than 1,700 U.S. affiliates of Habitat for Humanity International, is a Christian ministry that welcomes all people dedicated to the cause of eliminating poverty housing.
Since 1992, volunteers from corporations, faith-based ministries, and civic organizations have worked in partnership with qualified homebuyers to construct affordable, sustainable homes, which are then purchased through zero-interest mortgages.
