Mission
To bring people together to build homes, communities, and hope to realize our vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live through affordable home ownership and home preservation.

Programs
Homeownership program: families in need of a decent place to live build safe and affordable homes in partnership with us. Families purchase their houses from lexington habitat via an affordable mortgage. Affordable homeownership helps create the conditions that free families from instability, stress, and fear and encourages self-reliance and confidence. Studies show that strong and stable households are foundational to child development and growth. When a home fosters health and safety, families can flourish. Owning an affordable home also allows homeowners to lift up their entire family by saving for their future and investing in educational opportunities, bolstering job opportunities and career growth. In fy 2024 lexington habitat served more than 39 people though its homeownership program.

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. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $10M to $9.4M (−10%).
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: 2018 2% · 2019 5% · 2020 2% · 2021 7% · 2022 17% · 2023 9% · 2024 8% · 2025 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
31% of LEXINGTON HABITAT FOR HUMANITY INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (39% for the typical peer).

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
86% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. 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 LEXINGTON HABITAT FOR HUMANITY INC.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
