Overview
Mission
Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity of Broward brings people together to build homes, communities and hope. Habitat Broward’s Homeownership Support programs aim to empower families through education, resources, and ongoing, individualized support. Sponsor an individual class or an entire, yearly program. Family Support Workshops We facilitate monthly workshops for our partner families on topics such as credit & budgeting, insurance, preventative health care, wills and estate planning, effective parenting, home maintenance, and much more. Through these workshops, families gain access to the skills and resources they need to become responsible homeowners and achieve long-term stability and success.

Volunteers and future homeowners participate in constructing the homes and when complete the homes are sold at no profit and the financed with an affordable home mortgage. Candidates must demonstrate need and agree to participate in the habitat program which includes homebuyer education and a minimum of 300 hours of sweat equity.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
