Media release from Habitat for Humanity – Coosa Valley:
Habitat for Humanity – Coosa Valley is calling on local landowners, developers, and community partners to help address the growing need for affordable housing by donating buildable land for future Habitat homes.
Access to safe, decent, and affordable housing remains a critical challenge for many families in our community. Land donations play a vital role in Habitat Coosa Valley’s ability to construct homes that provide stability, dignity, and opportunity for hardworking families who otherwise may not be able to achieve homeownership.
“Land is one of the greatest barriers to affordable housing,” said Betsy Allgood, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity Coosa Valley. “A donated lot can become the foundation for a family’s future—offering not just shelter, but a pathway to long-term stability and hope.”
Habitat for Humanity Coosa Valley builds homes in partnership with local families who demonstrate need, the ability to pay an affordable mortgage, and a willingness to invest sweat equity into their homes and community. Each donated parcel of land directly supports Habitat’s mission to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter.
In many cases, land donors may also be eligible for tax benefits while making a lasting impact in our community. Community members interested in donating land or learning more about how to support Habitat for Humanity Coosa Valley’s affordable housing efforts are encouraged to reach out.
