(1) The general assembly hereby finds, determines, and declares that:

(a) Habitat for Humanity is an organization that welcomes all people, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or any other difference, to build and repair simple, decent, affordable houses for those who lack adequate shelter; and

(b) Habitat for Humanity of Colorado supports organization affiliates across the state that provide home ownership to low-income families that commit to a partnership that includes sweat equity, financial training, and a no-interest mortgage.

(2) In order to assist Habitat for Humanity of Colorado in fulfilling the mission of Habitat for Humanity, the general assembly recognizes that many citizens of Colorado may be willing to provide moneys to assist in its efforts. It is therefore the intent of the general assembly to provide Coloradans the opportunity to support the efforts of Habitat for Humanity of Colorado by allowing citizens to make a voluntary contribution on their state income tax return form to the Habitat for Humanity of Colorado fund for that purpose.
