Our chosen NGO for Something of Value is Habitat for Humanity. The NGO takes pride in its “sweat equity” and “partnership housing” concepts, where homeowners and their communities participate in the construction of the houses they will later own. Habitat For Humanity 2.0 serves as a platform to aid in the historical and current housing crisis in New York City and Yonkers through innovative and viable interventions in the existing stock. Our headquarters for Habitat 2.0 in Yonkers is a housing expo displaying ways in which life, work, and making could coexist in a healthy and sustainable environment.
