Mission
Dutchess County Habitat for Humanity is part of a global, nonprofit housing organization operated on Christian principles that seeks to put God’s love into action by building homes, communities and hope. Dutchess County Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally and worldwide through constructing, rehabilitating and preserving homes; by advocating for fair and just housing policies; and by providing training and access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Funding & Funding Diversity- We aim to improve board participation as well as increase our donor database.
HR Management & Recruiting/Retention- Although our HR strategies have improved greatly in 1 year, we would like to further develop our incentives and benefits for current and future employees.
Knowledge Management and Technical Infrastructure- For HFHDC these two areas go hand in hand and are in need of improvement and growth. It is our goal that by next year HFHDC will have a useable dashboard that will allow staff and administrators to have a clear look at our matrix and understand the information being put forth.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Currently, we have many programs that create databases for us, but not one main dashboard to view all of the data and use said data to improve capacity. Senior Staff and community stakeholders will research and identify outputs of current databases and what available databases are that can capture all the data that is collected.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?

Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jul 01 - Jun 30
SOURCE: IRS Form 990
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
