About HFH Roosevelt & Curry Counties |
Habitat for Humanity of Roosevelt and Curry Counties became an affiliate of HFH, International in November, 1999, serving the New Mexico counties of Roosevelt (county seat is Portales, NM) and Curry (county seat is in Clovis). |
The first home built by the affiliate in Portales was completed and the dedication held on March 8, 2003. The first Clovis home was completed and dedicated on August 30, 2005.
The ultimate goal of Habitat for Humanity is to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness by building basic but adequate housing. All our words and actions are for the purpose of putting shelter in the hearts and minds of people in such a way that poverty housing and homelessness become socially, politically and religiously unacceptable in our nation and world.
Our immediate goal is to provide an affordable housing alternative to those who would otherwise be unable to live in a decent quality home of their own. The community also benefits by increased home ownership and home quality among lower-income residents. This is a "win-win" situation for everyone.
As a grass-roots movement, Habitat for Humanity is decentralized and accepts no government funds. The Roosevelt and Curry Counties affiliate of Habitat is an autonomous, non-profit corporation with its own board of directors and committee structure. The current Board of Directors are: |
