Habitat for Humanity of Tompkins and Cortland Counties is a locally focused nonprofit organization that participates in Habitat for Humanity International’s global mission to provide affordable housing. Based in Dryden, New York, the affiliate works with first-time homebuyers from the Tompkins and Cortland Counties area, enabling them to build or improve a residence through sweat equity—volunteering on construction projects, assisting with events and administrative tasks, and completing financial and homeownership training. Once homes are completed, buyers purchase them with affordable mortgages, with mortgage payments funding the construction of additional Habitat homes and contributing to long-term stability and independence for families. The organization emphasizes energy efficiency and environmental considerations in its construction process, relying on volunteers and partnerships with contractors and material suppliers to manage costs. As part of a broader network that operates in nearly 1,400 communities in the United States and around 70 countries, the affiliate aims to strengthen communities by creating decent, affordable places to live.
