Battle Creek Area Habitat for Humanity Announces: Cars for Homes

Two billion people worldwide live in poverty housing, including 5.1 million American families who need a hand up, not a hand out. Habitat for Humanity, an ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating poverty housing, is providing that hand up, and you can help. Cars for Homes provides a new way to contribute to breaking the cycle of poverty and homelessness by donating cars, trucks, boats or other vehicles. Net proceeds generated from the sale of donated vehicles are used by local affiliates to build homes in partnership with low-income families. By the end of 2005, more than one million people worldwide were living in 200,000 Habitat homes they helped build and are buying through no-profit, zero-interest mortgages. Call 1-877-277-4344. www.habitat.org/carsforhomes/
