The mission of Habitat for Humanity Sarasota Inc. is to partner with God and community to provide decent affordable housing for people in need so they can build better lives for their families.Habitat for Humanity Sarasota strives to eliminate substandard housing through advocacy, education and partnership with families and individuals in need by building decent, sustainable and affordable housing. Since 1985, Habitat Sarasota has built and renovated more than 200 homes in the greater Sarasota area, transforming the lives of hundreds. Habitat Sarasota works together with local sponsors, donors and volunteers to build communities and families throughout the Sarasota area. Habitat homebuyers are qualified and selected based on their need for decent and affordable housing; ability to pay back an affordable mortgage; and willingness to partner with Habitat by completing hundreds of hours of "sweat equity" and a series of homebuyer classes. Habitat also manages a successful ReStore, where we sell donated items of furniture, household items and construction materials. Revenue generated from the ReStore support the agency mission and allow 100% of charitable giving to be restricted to building homes.
