Lubbock Habitat For Humanity

What Lubbock Habitat For Humanity does

Lubbock Habitat for Humanity is a Texas-incorporated nonprofit, established in 1987, that operates as a local affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International. The organization's stated mission is to provide simple, decent, and affordable homeownership opportunities to low-to-moderate income individuals and families in the Lubbock, TX area. Since founding, the affiliate has built or repaired over 150 homes and provided shelter to more than 500 adults and children.

The organization runs three core programs: a Homeownership Program under which qualifying applicants (households at 30%–80% of Area Median Income under HUD guidelines) purchase homes with affordable mortgages after completing sweat-equity and financial education requirements; a Home Repair program for existing homeowners; and the Lubbock Habitat ReStore, a physical thrift and home-goods retail operation at the headquarters address (3630 50th Street, Lubbock, TX 79413) selling donated furniture, appliances, building materials, and home goods, with all profits reinvested in housing programs. Signature community events include the annual Blitz Build (a concentrated construction week each September) and the Hard Hats & Heels fundraising gala, which in 2025 raised over $125,000.

The revenue model is donation- and mission-driven rather than commercial, drawing on tax-deductible charitable contributions from individuals, businesses, civic and faith groups, and foundations; recurring homeowner mortgage payments recycled into program funding; and ReStore retail proceeds. The operating footprint is confined to a single geography (Lubbock County, Texas), the organization employs 11–50 staff, and governance is provided by a community board including representation from Wells Fargo, UMC Health System, and a regional CPA firm.

Others

Broad incumbents
