Habitat for Humanity MetroWest/Greater Worcester Our Mission: To build homes, communities, and hope for local families and veterans in 43 cities and towns throughout MetroWest and Greater Worcester.

Our Vision: A world where everyone has a decent place to live. Through shelter, we empower. No matter who we are or where we come from, we all deserve to have a decent life. We deserve to feel strength and stability day after day. We deserve to know we have the power to take care of ourselves and build our own futures. Because you, me, we – we’re all humans. And every one of us deserves a fair chance. Your support gives families the opportunity to help themselves. Homeownership allows families to save more, invest in education, live in healthier environments and have more financial stability. It’s the foundation for success and a better future. With your financial support, your time, or your voice you can help create a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Join us at Habitat for Humanity MetroWest/Greater Worcester and help build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. www.habitatmwgw.org

At Habitat for Humanity—MetroWest/Greater Worcester (HFH-MW/GW), our motto is “A hand up, not a handout.” We are dedicated to building houses with families, not for them. We partner with hardworking families who earn between 30% – 60% of the area median income and do not qualify for other homeownership programs. Not only do Habitat families pay for their homes through a monthly mortgage, they also put in between 400 and 500 hours of sweat equity prior to becoming homeowners. Habitat homes are built completely through donations and volunteer labor of individuals, organizations, businesses and foundations throughout the MetroWest and Greater Worcester areas that have chosen to partner with HFH-MW/GW to eliminate substandard housing in their communities. Because of this we are able to sell our homes at a below market value to qualifying families in our service area. We convey our homes to pre-qualified families with interest-free mortgages at a price based on 30% of family income, less the estimated costs of taxes, insurance and utilities. People in your community, and all over the world, partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. With our help, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability, and independence they need to build a better life for themselves and their families.

We are deeply grateful to the team at The Hanover Insurance Group Foundation for getting fully hands-on with painting and constructing two very patriotic playhouses for local military families through our Operation Playhouse program. Their teams showed incredible creativity and dedication in customizing each playhouse specifically for these deserving families. Thank you, Hanover! ❤🏰
“I most enjoyed seeing the completed project and witnessing the families’ reactions when the playhouse was presented. It was very rewarding to see the positive impact of our work.”
“I enjoyed the work put into this and seeing the final project and what I learned along the way. Today I was a roofer, painter, and carpenter!”
-Hanover Employees

Partnerships and help from groups like Pilgrim Church are what keep our home builds moving forward. ❤️🏠
