WASHINGTON COUNTY – Habitat for Humanity of Southwest Utah is seeking a low-income family for its next home. Families are chosen on their need for decent housing, their ability to make payments on an affordable no-profit, no-interest mortgage, and their willingness to be active partners with Habitat for Humanity of Southwest Utah. Interested applicants must attend the meeting scheduled for 7 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 12, 2012 to apply.
Through the use of volunteer labor and donations of money and material from the community Habitat for Humanity of Southwest Utah is able to provide low-income families in Washington County an affordable place to live and raise a family. The selected family will be required to invest “sweat equity” hours into the rehabilitation of this home and make regular mortgage payments. The program offers deserving families a hand-up and an opportunity to improve their lives. Our primary goal is to provide affordable housing for a low-income family that is functional, safe, and easy to maintain.
The mandatory application meeting will be held at 1070 W 1600 South, Building B (Five County Association of Governments building), in St George. You will only be able to apply for the 2012 Home for the Holidays, by attending this meeting.
An online brochure detailing aspects of the candidate home and family selection criteria can be found here.
