Anyone who intends to apply for Honolulu Habitat's program is required to attend one session. Families who own or lease property and need a new home are encouraged to come to this meeting. Honolulu Habitat builds homes in partnership with low income families. The families will participate in building the home and then purchase the home from Habitat for the cost of construction through a 20-year, no interest loan serviced by Honolulu Habitat.

Founded in 1988 to serve Oahu, Honolulu Habitat for Humanity is a local affiliate of an international organization that builds homes with volunteer labor. The program is a "hand up not a hand out" and helps families build a simple, decent and safe home.
