Habitat for Humanity St. Tammany West is an ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating poverty housing by building simple, decent and affordable housing. Since it was founded in 1981 as the tenth Habitat affiliate in the US and the first in Louisiana, 308 new home construction projects were completed and sold to partner families with no-profit, zero-interest mortgages. Over 650+ children's lives have been impacted here in St. Tammany Parish by moving into a stable Habitat STW home.
