Programs Programs First-time Homeownership Description Big Bend Habitat for Humanity builds homes in partnership with individuals and families in Leon and Gadsden Counties. The home is sold to the partner family at build cost only with a 0% interest, 30-year mortgage. Budget $750,000.00 Category Population Served Short Term Success Long term Success Program Success Monitored By Examples of Program Success Housing, General/Other Affordable Housing Families, Poor,Economically Disadvantaged,Indigent, General/Unspecified The near term achievements that will result from this program will be a family (families) that has a greater opportunity for success, and contributes to our community as a whole. The ultimate change that will result from this program is a stronger, safer and more economically stable family unit in our community. Our program success is monitored by surveys, reports and feedback which come from homeowners in the program, Board members, Committee members and staff. We conduct quarterly workshops, which analyze and target issues that are required for successful completion and satisfaction of the Habitat mortgage loan, as well as the maintenance and upkeep of the Habitat home and community. These workshops target personal finance and budgeting, home maintenance and repair and pre and post-foreclosure information. The workshops help to monitor the success of the program by providing valuable information from those who currently carry mortgages with BBHH, which are of concern to the homeowner. We also utilize Manausa Law Firm to assist with any mortgage delinquency issues which affect our program success. Our <2% foreclosure rate is another measure for program success, which we strive to keep at a well below-average rate. The greatest example of program success is seeing our homeowners come in to pay their mortgage. 2

Mission & Area Served Statements Mission Statement Our mission is to put God s love into action by bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope, while eliminating homelessness and substandard housing in Leon and Gadsden Counties. Background Statement Big Bend Habitat for Humanity has served Leon and Gadsden County since 1982. BBHH seeks to eliminate substandard housing in both counties. Habitat selects homeowners based on each family's needs and income. Homeowners help with the construction of their homes by contributing 400 hours of "sweat equity". After moving into their new homes, homeowners make monthly mortgage payments to Habitat. Unlike other lenders, Habitat provides a 30 year mortgage at zero interest rate. Impact Statement 2013- Accomplishments Funded and coordinated a housing program that resulted in the construction of 6 new houses. Acquired 6 new lots through donations. The last 7 homes received Florida Green BUILD Certified Green Home. To date BBHH has built 173 homes. 2014-2015 Goals To the best scope possible, bring together and leverage existing resources to rehab affordable housing for low-income residents and Veterans of Leon County. Acquire an adequate amount of land to be designated to accommodate Leon County s projected housing needs, including affordable housing for very low income residents through the year 2016-2017 New residential construction homes built using energy efficiency standards to reduce energy consumption and the last 2 homes received the highest standards in the State of Florida. Needs Statement The most pressing needs for our program is monetary sponsorships and land acquisition affordability. CEO/Executive Director Statement Big Bend Habitat for Humanity (BBHH) is determined to eliminate substandard housing and homelessness in Leon and Gadsden Counties, by providing hard-working families and individuals an opportunity to work toward safe, decent and affordable homeownership. Since inception, and in partnership with local businesses, civic groups, churches and volunteers, BBHH has constructed 173 homes in the Leon/Gadsden area. In the past year BBHH provided homeownership for five families, but many others are waiting for help. BBHH believes that providing a hand up, rather than a hand out, to those seeking homeownership is a worthy endeavor. BBHH selects homeowners based on each family's particular needs and income. Homeowners help with the construction of their homes by contributing 400 hours of "sweat equity. These are hours worked by the partner family assisting with construction of other Habitat homes, as well as their own. "Sweat Equity" hours can also be earned by assisting BBHH with administrative duties as deemed appropriate. Aside from this, the sweat equity requirement affords each family an opportunity to invest something of themselves in their new home, establishing a sense of pride in homeownership along the way. And upon moving into their new homes, BBHH provides homeowners with reasonable 30-year, 0% interest mortgages. BBHH and its partners are happy to play a role in revitalizing this community, providing safety and security to families in need, while facilitating the benefits of camaraderie, partnership and goodwill. Sponsorship opportunities are available in the form of funding single-day, multiple-day, or an entire house build cycles.

The needs of the communities far exceed beyond the capacity of Leon and Gadsden counties. Economic conditions impact the number of families in need of decent, affordable housing. Additionally, the organizations rely heavily upon donations, which are not only impacted by economic conditions but other unmet needs. Other factors include: Language barriers- they may not know how to obtain needed services. They also may have different cultural beliefs regarding homeownership. Other factors which may cause challenges are: special populations such as the homeless, migrant or seasonal agricultural workers, residents of public housing, at-risk children, or people with mental health, developmental disabilities, or substance abuse problems, political factors will also affect the program design, implementation, and continuation of new or expanded services. BBHH continues to partner with federal/state, city/county government, churches, businesses, organizations, universities, and private donors to assist with building affordable housing. 8

Construction Committee-define the type of construction that best fits the needs of families dealing with specifically house design, materials, energy efficiency and cost estimates. BBHH has a finance committee, the duties of which are as follows: This committee is responsible for overseeing the implementation and administration of policies and procedures for handling and accounting for asset of the affiliate; preparing an annual revenue and expense budget for submission to the Board; working with the Fund Raising Committee to coordinate development of those resources necessary to meet the revenue goals of the budget; monitoring the implementation of the budget and, when necessary, making recommendations to the Board regarding adjustments to the budget; overseeing the administration of the affiliate's mortgage portfolio; monitoring the affiliate's mortgage escrow account receipts and disbursements; and, ensuring that annual mortgage escrow receipts are sufficient to pay the taxes and expenses related to each mortgaged property in a timely manner. The BBHH Board of Directors, through its finance committee, monitors delinquent payments on a monthly basis. Those consistently delinquent are offered the opportunity to make extra payments with their mortgage for an agreed up period and then have their loans modified. Further, such homeowners are strong encouraged to apply for the Florida Hardest Hit program. This has in the past brought numerous mortgage holders current. BBHH finds this process preferable to foreclosure, which when processed, is generally done so against an original homeowner's estate. The BBHH Board of Directors, through its finance committee, monitors all Florida RESPA and Mortgage origination laws on a regular basis, in conjunction with BBHH's attorney and accountant. The Board of Directors, which oversees the organization in general, approves and reviews the business strategies and policies that govern the organization. They are also responsible for understanding risk limits and setting acceptable ones, establishing organizational control structure, and making sure senior management identifies, measures, monitors, and controls risks and monitors internal control effectiveness.
