There's something important we need to share with our community.
We've recently learned that individuals are using the Habitat for Humanity name to offer fraudulent home repair services. These scammers are targeting people who may be looking for housing help -- and we want to make sure no one in Sumner County gets taken advantage of.
Here's what to watch for. Be cautious of anyone who:
Promises free or heavily discounted home repairs with no application process. Requests payment upfront, asks for gift cards, or wants your banking information or personal documents. Uses the Habitat name, logo, or mission in a way that feels off. Pressures you to respond immediately.
We will never ask for payment, gift cards, or sensitive personal information through social media or unofficial channels. All of our programs and application periods are announced through our official website and these social media pages.
If someone contacts you claiming to represent Habitat for Humanity of Sumner County, reach out to us directly before sharing any information. Call us at 615-452-9606 or visit habitatsumnercounty.org.
If you see a suspicious post, message, or ad using our name, report it to the platform and let us know.
Thank you for helping us protect our neighbors. That's what community is for.
