Habitat for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry. Habitat for Humanity International seeks to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world, and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action. Since its founding in 1976 by Millard and Linda Fuller, Habitat for Humanity International has built and rehabilitated more than 100,000 houses with families in need, becoming the world leader in addressing the issues of poverty housing. The concept that grew into Habitat for Humanity International was born at Koinonia Farm, a small, interracial, Christian farming community founded in 1942 outside of Americus, Georgia, by farmer and biblical scholar Clarence Jordan. The Fullers first visited Koinonia in 1965, having recently left a successful business in Montgomery, Alabama. Millard Fuller’s primary objective throughout college and his early life was to accumulate as much wealth as possible. During these years, that objective was accomplished, only to be abandoned for a new life of Christian service. In September 1976, Millard and Linda called together a group of supporters to discuss the future of their dream. Habitat for Humanity International
