Home Ownership
Interfaith Housing Alliance has worked with more than 235 families to build their own homes
and currently has sites available in Shippensburg, PA.
In partnership with the USDA Self-Help Housing program,
eligible participants (View Application Form)
learn how to manage the financial responsibility of homeownership and each contributes up to 30 hours per week of "sweat equity" to build their own home. Self-Help participants also contribute to building the homes of their neighbors.
For more information on the Self-Help program, please contact Brian Kump, our Community Development Manager, at 717.532.2475 or by email at info@interfaithhousing.org. (Download Pre-Qualification Worksheet)
