Fired Habitat founder forms similarly named ministry in same city Building Habitat "not intended to compete"

Habitat for Humanity founder Millard Fuller, who was fired in January from his house-building organization, has announced a new housing ministry to be located in the same city, Americus, Georgia.

Although Fuller says his similarly named group, Building Habitat, is “not intended to compete” with Habitat for Humanity, officials of the world-renowned ministry expressed concern that many donors and volunteers will be confused.
