What does Habitat for Humanity Singapore do?

Habitat for Humanity Singapore is a Christian housing charity that strives to eliminate poverty housing worldwide by providing safe, affordable homes for low-income families. They have been working in Asia-Pacific since 2004 and regularly send volunteer teams overseas to build decent houses as part of their Global Village program. Locally, they offer an intensive house-cleaning service through Project HomeWorks for vulnerable individuals and families who need a safe and sanitary place to call home.
