Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce helps families build and buy safe, decent and affordable homes through a no down payment, no-interest mortgage with payment set at 25 percent of gross income. This solution not only helps to provide housing for families in need, it enables low-income families to build assets, reduce their dependence on social assistance and break the cycle of poverty giving families a Hand Up, not a Hand Out.
As a ‘Visionary Sponsor’, Bruce Power has been a major supporter of our homebuilding program for several years. The company also supports our cause by helping to keep electricity prices affordable; it is understood Bruce Power supplies electricity at 30 per cent less than what the average homeowner pays.
Please consider this submission as an endorsement of Bruce Power’s existing role in Ontario’s Long-Term Energy Plan. The company plays a vital role in providing employment in the Grey Bruce region as well as clean, reliable electricity to the province.
Sincerely,
Greg Fryer
Executive Director
Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce
