Hello,
I called Habitat for Humanity's main US contact number in Americus,
Georgia, and they unfortunately do not release such statistics for
local branches. I was able to talk to a very nice lady named Terri
Woods at the US Affiliates Administration (800-422-4828 x2574). She
researched some regional numbers to help me out though, and said it's
probably just a problem of logistics why they don't release cumulative
local statistics. She asked if I had any questions on any local
affiliate in the US, she could bring up that information. Maybe by
writing to their headquarters in Georgia, you might have better luck,
but it may take a bit of time to compile those statistics. The mailing
address follows below:
Mailing Address:
Habitat for Humanity International
121 Habitat Street
Americus, GA 31709
U.S.A.
Here are the statistics that Terri was kind enough to share with me:
Northeast
388
Central Atlantic Region (Maryland, Carolinas, Virginias, etc.)
667
Southeast
1087
Mid America (Ohio, Kentucky, etc.)
723
Middle States (Texas, Mississippi, etc.)
799
Midwest (Michigan, Dakotas)
585
Western States
519
Good luck with any project that you undertake, and while this may not
be a full answer, it may help you on your way. Let me know if this is
sufficient enough to post as the final answer, as scouring their
website returned no leads, and I doubt that such detailed, focused
information could be gathered from anywhere but Habitat for Humanity
themselves. Thank you very much.
