Who we are

Hope to Own partners with people in your community, and all over the world, to help them build or improve a place they can call home. HtO homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. With your support, HtO homeowners achieve the strength, stability and independence they need to build a better life for themselves and for their families. Through our 2020 Strategic Plan, Hope to Own will serve more people than ever before through decent and affordable housing.

Non-proselytizing policy

Hope to Own and its affiliate organizations will not proselytize. Nor will HtO work with entities or individuals who insist on proselytizing as part of their work with HtO. This means that HtO will not offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must adhere to or convert to a particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.
