Building Homes, Communities and Hope: The social and economic impacts of Habitat for Humanity’s Affordable Homeownership Program
A driver of security and well-being Families in Habitat for Humanity’s Affordable Homeownership Program get more than a home. They gain social and financial benefits that strengthen their lives, put their children on a path to success, and build inclusive communities. Habitat Manitoba is making history with our largest build to date—a 55-home development on Pandora Avenue West in Transcona . This project is more than bricks and mortar; it’s about creating safe, affordable housing for families facing the rising pressures of housing insecurity, and building a community where children can grow and thrive.
