About Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity

Our mission

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope.


Our vision

A world where everyone has a decent place to live.


Our principles

  • Demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ.
  • Focus on shelter.
  • Advocate for affordable housing.
  • Promote dignity and hope.
  • Support sustainable and transformative development.


Who we are

Habitat for Humanity partners with people in your community, and all over the world, to help them build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. With your support, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability and independence they need to build a better life for themselves and for their families. Through our 2020 Strategic Plan, Habitat for Humanity will serve more people than ever before through decent and affordable housing.


Non-proselytizing policy

Habitat for Humanity and its affiliate organizations will not proselytize. Nor will Habitat work with entities or individuals who insist on proselytizing as part of their work with Habitat. This means that Habitat will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must adhere to or convert to a particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.




Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity's mission

Our mission is to provide safe, decent and affordable housing in the southern New Hampshire towns we serve.** We are a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that works to strengthen families and communities through affordable homeownership opportunities. 


Working together side by side with corporations, like-minded community groups, faith-based organizations, schools, individual volunteers, etc., GNHFH strives to develop better, affordable living conditions which will lead to improved health, stronger childhood development, and the ability — and financial flexibility — to make forward-looking choices. 


We partner with families whose income is above public housing guidelines but are unable to qualify for conventional mortgages. Qualified families are given a hand up (not a hand out). Habitat home buyers earn the homes they build through sweat equity and by repaying affordable mortgages as well as paying city/town property taxes and homeowner insurance premiums.   


Habitat is committed to developing and uplifting families and communities in addition to constructing houses.
