About Habitat for Humanity of Williamson County
Since 1992, Habitat for Humanity of Williamson County (HFHWC) has partnered with local churches, businesses, foundations, and the public sector to provide 138 hard-working, low-income Williamson and Maury County families with the opportunity to purchase their own homes. Home construction and neighborhood development is funded through tax-deductible financial contributions and in-kind donations from high school students, local businesses, churches, civic organizations, and individuals, as well as through profits generated from the affiliate’s ReStore. These contributions, along with the labor of sponsor employees, church members, and other volunteers, enable Habitat for Humanity of Williamson County to build and sell homes to families who qualify. Applicants are selected to partner with Habitat for Humanity of Williamson County based on three criteria: the need for housing, the ability to pay the mortgage, and the willingness to partner. After a thorough qualification process, partner families must earn up to 500 hours of “sweat equity” by completing a homebuyer’s education program, working on others’ homes and their own home. HFHWC sells the homes at cost and does not charge interest on the mortgage loan, which makes the payments affordable.
