01What it does

What Habitat for Humanity of Summit County Inc does

Mission

Seeking to put god's love into action, habitat for humanity brings people together to build homes, community and hope to realize our vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Habitat for humanity (local affiliate) adheres to a strict non-proselytizing policy and 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.

As stated on its FY2026 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Homeownership program: we build new homes, purchase or receive donated distressed and blighted properties for homeownership. Homes are built to match the neighborhood they are located and are priced at appraisal value, usually comparable to surrounding properties. Volunteers are utilized for construction and supervised by habitat staff adhering to strict safety protocols. Future homeowners contribute sweat equity by volunteering on construction sites or in other habitat activities. Homes are sold to low-income families using an affordable mortgage. Affordable means that no more than 30% of the household income would be spent for housing (mortgage payment, property tax, and property insurance). The money that is made for mortgage payments is deposited into a fund for humanity and used to further our mission. We strive to provide homeownership opportunities to populations that have faced discrimination and social injustice for generations due to poor public policy and bias. In fy26 we transferred 12 homes to partner families.

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 SUMMIT COUNTY INC.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $4.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
