- Advocacy | Habitat for Humanity of Greater Cincinnati
every voice Advocacy At Habitat for Humanity of Greater Cincinnati, our vision is of a region where everyone has a decent place to live. While we build and repair homes in pursuit of that vision, we also advocate for policies and systems that eliminate barriers to safe and affordable homes. Everyone deserves to build the foundation for a stable, healthy future for themselves and their families — no matter who they are, where they live or how much money they earn. As an organization, we have long advocated for our homeowners and for increased housing affordability in our city. Now, we are asking you to join us by joining the #CostOfHome movement Homeownership Rock the Block Critical Repair Program Construction Training Advocacy Advocacy News Habitat for Humanity of Ohio Awarded $25 Million for Workforce Housing and Training Initiatives CINCINNATI, OH (January 6, 2023) – Habitat for Humanity of Ohio has been awarded $25 million as part of a larger American Rescue Plan Act (A Families across the U.S. are paying too high a price to cover the cost of home. Rent and homeownership costs are skyrocketing, but wages are not keeping pace. Too many families struggle to make ends meet. In cities, suburbs, and rural areas, the stability that home should bring remains out of reach for many families. At Habitat for Humanity, we know that a family should never have to spend more than 30% of their income on a home. But today, nearly 19 million U.S. households pay 1/2 or more of their income on a place to live. That is unacceptable. That means that 1 in 6 families are denied the personal and economic stability that safe, decent and affordable housing provides. Instead, 1 in 6 families are forced to make impossible choices. Safe homes. Nutritious food on the table. Health care. Access to good schools. Reliable transportation. Now, as the economic impacts of COVID-19 continue to unfold, the number of families struggling to make ends meet is only growing. Housing policy is influenced by decades of systemic racism. Habitat's Cost of Home campaign calls for policymakers to acknowledge and address the well-documented historic patterns of racial discrimination in housing and land use policies — at all levels of government — that still impact the makeup and opportunities of our communities. We declare our commitment: Habitat for Humanity will work to ensure that no family has to pay more than half of their paycheck to cover the cost of home. Over the next 5 years, we will join Habitat organizations, our partners, our volunteers, and community members across the country to find the solutions and help create the policies that will allow 10 million individuals to meet their most basic needs. The time is now Use your voice to encourage others to vote and tell candidates that no family should have to spend more than half their income on housing. Here's your "action kit": Vote! Candidates at every level should be asked where they stand on affordable housing for all.

- Eastside Spotlight | Habitat Cincinnati
"It's a huge opportunity to have fun together, and at the end of the day when you leave, you can look back and see that something you did is concrete, it's there, and it's going to be there for a long time." -John Wright, Eastside Coalition < Return to Annual Report Spotlight: Faith in Action Eastside Coalition John Nolan from St. Barnabas Episcopal Church, John Wright from St. Paul United Methodist Church, and Roy Johnson from Good Shepherd Lutheran Church are three long-time members of the Eastside Coalition. We sat down with these men to talk about the success of their coalition and why they chose to partner with Habitat. The Eastside Coalition is made up of 11 churches of all different denominations and sizes who share a common interest in helping build Habitat homes. The group banded together in 1996 to raise funds and mobilize volunteers to build their first Habitat home. Since then, the group has built almost 90 homes and these three men have been building homes together for over a decade. John Nolan says that the way St. Barnabas helps is by sharing their "people, money, and time." Each church has its own outreach efforts which work to raise money for Habitat. They have their own ways of supporting Habitat, and they share ideas with one another. His church, for example, hosts an annual benefit concert in the summer. The money that they raise goes directly to Habitat for Humanity Greater Cincinnati. "We have a long history of being involved with Habitat, and we have a specific amount of money each year in our outreach budget that goes to Habitat so it's a very important part of our ministry," says Roy Johnson of Good Shepard Lutheran Church. He also told us about how Habitat events, activities, and volunteer opportunities are present in each of their church newsletters. "We're always promoting it, and we're very blessed that our pastors are really into Habitat." Habitat welcomes anyone of all abilities to get involved. "It's crucial to point out that most of us volunteers had no background in construction. The appeal is the ability to go out and learn how to use your hands, learn more about house-building; it's on the job training," says Wright. He shared a memory of working with an 85-year-old volunteer who helped him to move scaffolding. "Anybody can do almost anything if they want, and anybody can contribute." "One of the aspects that I think makes it work is that there are many ways people can get involved," Wright continues. There are many roles from fundraising, recruiting, and organizing to packing lunches, swinging a hammer, and painting the walls. "It gives different talents an opportunity to help." Eastside Coalition Over the Years Each of the Eastside Coalition churches believes in sharing God's love with people outside their own doors. Working with Habitat for Humanity Greater Cincinnati allows them to put their faith into action and see change within their own community. "It's a rewarding thing… you spread goodwill and our folks feel [that] they're getting involved with the community, literally," says Nolan. "It's local," starts Wright. "We do some things that are national or international, but this is local, and it gives us the sense that we're doing something here." He talks about the importance of hands-on work, to do something in your own backyard. "It's doing something that is lasting, and you can see the benefit." Wright, Nolan, and Johnson all agree that they enjoy being able to see the direct impact in their community. "It's a huge opportunity to have fun together, and at the end of the day when you leave, you can look back and see that something you did is concrete, it's there, and it's going to be there for a long time," says Wright. Plus, they explain that volunteering is fun and has allowed them to bond with others. "It's a community," says Johnson. Working with Habitat allows the churches and coalitions to connect and strengthen their own sense of community. "You get to meet some of the church members that you otherwise might not have," says Wright. Because there are so many ways to get involved with Habitat, volunteer opportunities appeal to people from all different backgrounds." "You get to talk while you're working, and you get to know them better," says Nolan. "Comradery is a big part of it. We get to tease each other, trade bad jokes. We learn from each other's mistakes or learn from someone who knows more than you. You can take some of those skills home." Nolan says he's now better at home improvement projects because of his time spent on Habitat build sites. When asked about their favorite memories with the Eastside Coalition and Habitat, Nolan responds, "we could talk about this for hours!" But a few key memories came to mind, like signing the lumber for a new home with well wishes and blessings, listening to a homeowner speak at a dedication ceremony, and working alongside the homebuyers to build their homes. One of Johnson's favorite memories is when a family from his own church was able to purchase a Habitat home. After immigrating from Africa and moving to Cincinnati, this family started going to church at Good Shepherd Lutheran and through the church found out about Habitat's homeownership program. Johnson enjoyed working alongside them to build their home and said it was rewarding watching a good family put down roots in their community. "The stability that a house brings a family can't really be overstated," says Nolan. "So the fact that Habitat is addressing that is encouraging." Even though it takes months to build a house and there's such a need, you get to help a family. "You have to start somewhere." "It's so important that [churches] get to know the Habitat story and that you can make a difference," says Johnson. "It's a collective enterprise to address a real need. It's self-satisfying," says Nolan. Interested churches can join one of the existing coalitions involved with Habitat for Humanity Greater Cincinnati. "The number one necessity is enthusiasm," says Wright. "If you show up and give it a try, you'll learn on the job. It's not hard, it's fun!"

growing together July 1, 2023- June 30, 2024 Annual Report Introduction | Homeownership | Repair | CTP | Volunteers | ReStore | Donors | Financials "Your support has been the driving force, empowering us to take bold strides toward a future where everyone in Greater Cincinnati has a safe, decent place to call home." A letter from the CEO Dear Friends, Growth brings undeniable excitement, and this year was filled with forward momentum that touched all parts of our mission—more families served, more homes repaired, more people engaged. It’s visible in every Habitat child thriving in the safety of a stable home, and in every parent who, for the first time, can finally plan for the future. Times like these are electric—filled with contagious energy and a powerful vision of what’s possible. As we begin this new year and reflect on the last, I am deeply inspired by the growth we’ve achieved together. Thanks to your generous contributions—through donations, volunteering, or steadfast support—we partnered with 162 families to build, repair, and renovate homes across the Tri-State Area. Six classes of Construction Training Program students graduated, gaining new opportunities to advance their careers. And with the opening of our sixth ReStore, we expanded our revenue streams, empowering us to do even more in the communities we serve.

- Repair Program Spotlight | Habitat Cincinnati
“Being able to stay stable in the house and the community I’ve known for my whole life means a lot. It’s great” < Return to Annual Report Spotlight: Repair Program George and Darla's Story George, a veteran, and his wife Darla have lived in their home for 12 years, but for George, his ties to the house go back generations. “I grew up two doors down. My grandmother lived in this house, and my aunt. I remember being here as a child. There are pictures of me as a boy in this house.” George and Darla reached out to Habitat for Humanity to help replace the gutters and downspouts of their 100-year-old family home. “I don’t have to worry about the gutters every time it rains now, or we get a windstorm because, once the first one started falling off I knew it was a just a matter of time before they all came down,” says Darla. “I’m a big worry wart and I know gutters are a very expensive thing to do.” “We can’t afford to fix things as they break unfortunately, so the repairs have definitely helped us be able to stay here in our home. We can’t afford to go out and pay rent that goes up every year. When you own your own house, you don’t have to worry about all that stuff. You don’t have to worry about getting evicted. We have six cats and a dog. In a rental, we wouldn’t be able to keep our animals,” says Darla. “Being able to stay stable in the house and the community I’ve known for my whole life means a lot. It’s great,” says George. Their stability extends beyond the couple. Darla’s daughter and their two grandchildren also live in the home. “I grew up with this house and now the grandchildren are doing the same thing. This is the only home they’ve ever had and we’ll pass it along to them too eventually,” says George “Stability means a lot. Especially as you get older,” says Darla. “We like to get out and sit on the porch and watch the birds and the squirrels. […] We really can’t go anywhere in the neighborhood without running into someone we know. A lot of people have grown up here. It’s a little bit of a family town.” As we left George and Darla’s home, George says,” she is worried about less now.” “Yes, one less thing to worry about,” says Darla. With your help, the Critical Repair Program provides much-needed stability and independence for aging homeowners in our community. donate today! more homeowner stories
