Affordable Housing is in short supply all over the United States, including right here in Virginia. Join our Host and Community Outreach Coordinator Kirsten Pittman as she introduces Central Valley Habitat for Humanity and the work we do in our community.
In this episode of Let's Build, we talk about the importance of green building initiatives when it comes to low-income housing and how cost burdens on families living below the poverty line can be negated with energy-efficient choices.

About Central Valley Habitat for Humanity
CVHFH was first organized in 1988 and just recently celebrated 33 years of building up the community. Habitat for Humanity has an open-door policy: All who believe that everyone needs a decent, affordable place to live are welcome to help with the work, regardless of race, religion, age, gender, political views, or any of the other distinctions that too often divide people. In short, Habitat welcomes volunteers and supporters from all backgrounds and also serves people in need of decent housing regardless of race or religion.
