Sandra made the final payment on her zero interest mortgage!

Sandra built her home in 1997 with help from Habitat for Humanity East Central Ohio and The Timken Foundation. Recently, with joyful tears, she made her final zero interest mortgage payment!

When families partner with Habitat for Humanity to build and purchase their own homes, they invest sweat equity and receive a zero interest mortgage. When you shop and donate at ReStore, volunteer your time, or make a financial donation, you’re helping families like Sandra’s build strength, stability, and self-reliance that lasts—thank you!
