Why is Habitat for Humanity building new homes right now?

I am not here to criticize the mission of Habit for Humanity. I believe that they have a noble mission. However, why build houses right now, when families are losing their homes. I found out that in some places Habitat is even bulldozing unsold, unoccupied houses. Why not develop a program to place people back into houses that already exist. This will serve at least two purposes, place families back into homes and reduce the inventory of unsold homes.This seems to me like a noble mission, what do you think?

I am not certain about their current strategy. If someone out there does, please share your thoughts. Based on the information I received, they are building a new subdivision in Florida. The profits generated from the sales of these homes, will be utilized to fund their nonprofit mission of providing housing to low income families. However, why do it by building new homes? Why not use the existing housing inventory? If there is a need to beautify the area, then let’s do a cleanup process, paint the homes, perform the needed repairs and place those houses back into the market at an affordable price.
