PVHFH

Pomona Valley HFH is a locally run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing organization. Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with people in need to build and renovate decent, affordable housing. The houses then are sold to those in need at no profit and with no interest charged.

Volunteers provide most of the labor, and individual and corporate donors provide money and materials to build Habitat houses. Partner families themselves invest hundreds of hours of labor - "sweat equity" - into building their homes and the homes of others. Their mortgage payments go into a revolving Fund for Humanity that is used to build more houses.

We proudly serve the communities of Chino, Chino Hills, Claremont, Covina, Diamond Bar, Glendora, La Puente, La Verne, Montclair, Ontario, Pomona, Rancho Cucamonga, San Dimas, Upland, Walnut and West Covina.

We use VolunteerUP, a software program, to allow you to register and schedule yourselves to volunteer. Please click the VolunteerUPlogo to enter your information in our system.

We all appreciate the service, fellowship and generosity of all those who see the work of Pomona Valley Habitat for Humanity as valuable and important. Thanks to committed volunteers and supporters like you, 35 families locally and over 300,000 globally, are in their Habitat homes.

Our Pomona Valley Habitat for Humanity families; Horton, Guerra, Vera/Alvarez, Ortiz and Cessna, all look forward to taking occupancy in their Habitat for Humanity homes. Each of these families will realize their dream of homeownership within this year. However, we can't continue to build more houses and help more families, without financial and volunteer support. We need your help; especially for the Chino and Chino Hills homes currently under construction. We have received several generous donations for these homes, but we still have approximately $150,000 to raise to reach our funding goals and to complete these homes for the Vera/Alvarez, Ortiz and Cessna families.

Please consider a contribution to our home-building efforts this year! Donations can be mailed to Pomona Valley Habitat for Humanity, 2111 Bonita Avenue, La Verne, CA 91750 or made securely online through our website by clicking here. Thank you for your support, and please continue to stay informed on our upcoming projects.
