Mission
UR Habitat for Humanity shares Habitat for Humanity International's mission of eliminating poverty housing and homelessness from the world, and making decent shelter a matter of conscience and action. The campus chapter seeks to strengthen the University, Rochester, and larger communities through building quality, safe, affordable housing for people in need, raising funds to support building efforts, and learning and teaching about housing issues. Our ultimate (and ongoing) goal is to raise enough money to sponsor a Habitat house. Throughout the year we host a series of fundraising events such as: Shelf-a-thon, Pie Sale, and more. While we work to raise the money to sponsor a house ($10,000), we help build Habitat houses in the Rochester area and every spring break organize a trip to another area that needs help building affordable, reliable housing.
