The
overwhelming need for housing in Lafourche and Terrebonne Parishes has provided
the Bayou Area Habitat for Humanity volunteers an amazing opportunity to change
lives in our neighborhoods. Cost burden and overcrowding are the most serious
problems by many residents – Habitat addresses these issues by being one of the
only affordable homeownership programs that services families earning less than
50% of income.
Since
1998, Bayou Area Habitat has built houses in neighborhoods across Lafourche and
Terrebonne Parishes for basic human need, and Habitat strives to eliminate
poverty housing and making affordable homes a reality for all families. ((bayouhabitat.org))
