I think that the number of hours of sweat equity to qualify for a Habitat home is 500, not 50. Some of the hours can be met by attending mandatory financial education classes.
The houses are not free but have a modest mortgage. Habitat for Humanity is a good way to give people a hand up instead of a hand out.

Ar you sure? that’s an 8 hour day for 12.5 weeks.
Most houses go up sooner than that, except for the parts she could not help with anyway (laying a concrete foundation, roofing, plumbing, electrical)
