divide people. In short, Habitat welcomes volunteers and supporters from all
backgrounds and also serves people in need of decent housing regardless of race
or religion. As a matter of policy, Habitat for Humanity International and its
affiliated organizations do not proselytize. This means that Habitat will not
offer assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people must either
adhere to or convert to a particular faith, or listen and respond to messaging
designed to induce conversion to a particular faith. About
