2020 Entrepreneurs HouseCommunity Service Opportunity

2020 Twin Cities Entrepreneurs HouseThe 2020 Entrepreneurs House is a community service project for the Twin Cities entrepreneurial community. A group of entrepreneurial companies, investment firms and other businesses that serve the entrepreneurial community are coming together to build a house as a part of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity. The project allows for a valuable team-building experience for your employees while also providing this im-portant community contribution.

Financial and Volunteer Participation GoalsOur group is seeking to involve 20 or more companies to volunteer on site as well as raise $160,000 for the project. Each volunteering company brings a team of up to 8 employees to work on the house for one full day (9 am to 3 pm) during the 6 week period from July 20 — August 28, 2020.

Habitat for Humanity Habitat for Humanity is an international, non-profit organization that builds homes for low income families. More than 5,000,000 people live in over 1,000,000 homes built by Habitat in its 40 year history. Habitat’s approach is oriented toward helping less fortunate families to help themselves by building homes with volunteer labor and then selling the homes to the families at an affordable cost.

Twin Cities Entrepreneurs House SummaryThe Entrepreneurs House project has been a growing success over the past 18 years. The generosity and dedication of the people of Minnesota to issues of affordable hous-ing is one reason the Twin Cities is a leader in business, culture and quality of life.

Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity Key Facts

AFFORDABLE HOUSING

In the United States 95 million people, one-third of the nation, have housing problems, including lack of affordability, overcrowding, unsafe conditions, and homelessness. In the Twin Cities metro area alone, over half a million people, or more than 20% of the popula-tion, are having to spend too much of their income on their housing — not leaving enough for other necessities like good nutrition, health care, transporta-tion, advancing education or saving for the future. And the problem is growing faster in Minnesota than in any other state. This creates tremendous instability in our families, weakens our economy, and even impacts our health and educational success.

HABITAT HOMEOWNERSHIP

• Twin Cities Habitat is one of the 1,200 indepen- dent affiliates of Habitat for Humanity Interna- tional in the United States and is among the largest and most productive of those affiliates.

• The family income for the primary homeown- ership program is between 30% and 60% of area median income

• On average, a Habitat family has 5-6 members in the household.

• Every homebuyer receives an affordable, fixed-rate, long-term mortgage from our wholly-owned mort gage lending subsidiary, TCHFH Lending, Inc.

• Every family completes a combination of one-on-one financial coaching, homeownership classes, and sweat equity volunteer hours before buying a home.

• Twin Cities Habitat’s foreclosure rate is under 1% thanks to diligent work selecting and preparing families.
