01What it does

What Habitat for Humanity of Butte County does

Mission

Seeking to put God's love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope. Our vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Habitat for Humanity of Butte County unites people of all faiths and no faith to work together, and adheres to a strict non-proselytizing policy. We do not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must adhere to or convert to particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

  1. People who need a decent place to live build safe, affordable homes in partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Butte County. Together, we build homes that are modestly sized, large enough for each household's needs and small enough to keep construction and maintenance costs affordable. Future homeowners, volunteers and Habitat staff build alongside one another, using efficient building methods, modest house sizes, donated construction materials and appliances, and affordable financing to help make homeownership possible for people facing barriers to safe, decent and affordable housing. Affordable homeownership helps create the stability and opportunity people need to build independence, confidence and the life they choose. Strong, stable homes are foundational to child development and growth. A safe, affordable home also helps homeowners plan for the future, invest in educational opportunities, strengthen job opportunities and build long-term financial independence. During fiscal year 2025, Habitat for Humanity of Butte County served more than 26 people through its homeownership program and has served 252 people since its inception.

Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Habitat for Humanity of Butte County.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.7M arriving through sponsors registered in 5 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
