Habitat of Benton County
Habitat for Humanity of Benton County , Inc. is an non-denominational Christian housing ministry with the objective of elimination poverty housing from within Benton County and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience as well as action. In addition to building houses, Habitat for Humanity helps to build relationships with families and the community that result in a sense of belonging to the community for the new homeowner.We seek to serve those in Benton County that are in need of affordiable housing.
Our First Build in Pea Ridge!
Our first build in Pea Ridge will begin September 11 and will be the home of Tammy Sutherland and her daughters Mackenzie and Morgan. This build is sponsored by Arvest Bank and Unilever.
We Need Families!
Applying for a home is not difficult and we need families that qualify. You can own your own home through Habitat for Humanity. If you think you might qualify or know of someone that would be interested in applying use the "Apply for Home" tab for more information.
New homes are sold in exchange for 400 hours of sweat equity and the cost of building the home. You will have a mortgage that is interest free and normally is for 20 years.
Dedication in Centerton
August 5th we dedicated our home in Centerton. Sherry Peoples and her daughter Alexis are the proud home owners. This home was sponsored by Premier Concepts and Horton Family Farms.
Premier Concepts is no stanger to Habitat of Benton County. They have sponsored many homes for us and use the first few days of the inital start of the build as a team building exercise.
We wish to express our deep appreciation and thanks to all of the volunteers and businesses who have so generously given their valuable time, energy, money and products to this cooperative project.
