Habitat for Humanity’s strategic plan looks at the number of individuals impacted by our work. The Habitat network reports our work as a mix of households and individuals. To present our figures as individuals, we multiply by five the number of households served by our international work, and we multiply by four (or by two for repairs) the number of households served by our work in the U.S. and Canada. The data presented here have been through this conversion.

Definitions
New and rehabs
New houses are 100% newly constructed and meet Habitat for Humanity quality standards and local building codes. Rehabs are restorations of houses that once met Habitat’s standards and local building codes but needed major, usually structural, work to bring them back to these standards and codes.
Repairs
Minor restoration, such as patching roofs or walls or replacing materials in houses that still meet Habitat’s quality standards and local building codes.
Market development
Individuals served with better housing through the private sector as a result of a Habitat program.
Incremental
An intervention that fully addresses one or more of the five Habitat for Humanity quality standards:
  • Adequate size
  • Durable construction
  • Secure land tenure rights
  • Access to adequate amounts of clean water
  • Proper sanitation
Professional services
Preconstruction advice or design services provided directly by Habitat professionals to the household, for specific construction projects.
Civil society facilitation
Partnerships in which Habitat leads community-based and nongovernmental organizations in a program designed to expand adequate and affordable housing.

Moving the mission forward

God has truly blessed Habitat for Humanity. We are incredibly grateful to you, our donors and supporters, for your continued generosity. This report bears testament to the work you help make happen and illuminates how we are changing lives every day — together. Your faithfulness and deep engagement with our mission inspire and energize us. Because you share our mission, our mission moves forward.

Fiscal year 2022 — like every year — presented challenges, but also opportunities. We continue to navigate the effects of the pandemic, the war in Ukraine and global inflation on our work, and our finances and are ever-alert to continuing changes in the economy and to crisis moments around the world. And yet, in the midst of so many complex and overlapping factors, we are strong. Our revenue, both restricted and unrestricted, performed above plan. Through committed stewardship day to day, we also once again kept our expenses under plan.

Through this success, and as we look ahead, we continue to make key investments in our program work, fund our endowment, strengthen our capacity around the world and support our strategic initiatives. Thank you for doing your part to help make sure that the organization can work hard today and plan well for tomorrow.

The need for affordable housing, for secure and stable places to call home, only continues to grow around the world. Our determination to meet that need head-on grows as well. Every innovation, every solution, every change we help create is a direct result of your commitment. We are tremendously grateful for your partnership, your prayers and your active participation.
