Community Involvement
Habitat for Humanity International At our core, Option One is about homeownership, so naturally we get excited about taking this even farther in our work with Habitat for Humanity. We sponsor and build individual homes, provide financial support to ongoing programs and serve as an underwriting consultant to the Orange County chapter of Habitat for Humanity. This chapter awarded Option One with its Sponsor of the Year award in 2003.


Option One associates have sponsored and built Habitat for Humanity homes throughout the United States in the following communities:

- Bellevue, Wash. - Huntington Beach, Calif.
- Boston, Mass. - Jacksonville, Fla.
- Charlotte, N.C. - Orlando, Fla.
- Columbus, Ohio - Santa Ana, Calif.
- Costa Mesa, Calif. - Stanton, Calif.
- Detroit, Mich. - Westminster, Calif.
- Fairfax, Va.  

Extending Our Hands Further
Although we do a lot at Option One, there are always more opportunities to help, so we found a way to get even more support for our partner, Habitat for Humanity. We created an arrangement with Banc of America Securities LLC, Greenwich Capital and Bank One, which underwrite securities for Option One, that each donates a percentage of underwriting fees to help Option One associates build more Habitat for Humanity homes.
