What Habitat for Humanity of Tompkins & Cortland Counties does
Mission
Seeking to put god's love into action, habitat for humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope and realize our vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Habitat for humanity of tompkins and cortland counties adheres to a strict non-proselytizing policy and will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must adhere or convert to a particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Homeownership program: families in need of a decent place to live build safe and affordable homes in partnership with us. Habitat houses are moderately sized. They are large enough for the homeowner family's needs, but small enough to keep construction and maintenance costs affordable. By using the labor of volunteers and prospective homeowners, employing efficient building methods, keeping house sizes modest, and using donated construction materials and appliances, habitat makes its houses affordable for low-income families to purchase. Affordable homeownership helps create the conditions that free families from instability, stress, and fear and encourage self-reliance and confidence. Studies show that strong and stable households are foundational to child development and growth. When a home fosters - instead of hinders - health and safety, families can flourish. Owning an afforable home also allows homeowners to lift up their entire family by saving for their futures and investing in educatonal opportunities, bolstering job opportunities, and career growth.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $1.3M to $0 (−100%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 39% · 2018 27% · 2021 6% · 2022 4% · 2023 12% · 2024 50%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
