open in viewerOur project created a database for Habitat for Humanity MW/GW to organize information on their homeowners. We collected input on the database structure through interviews with the staff and feedback from testing the database. We delivered a Microsoft Access database to track data on homeowners, properties, and mortgages. We found that: Habitat Affiliates across Massachusetts use different software but organize information similarly; it is difficult to standardize database fields for every unique homeowner; and creating a database is an iterative process. Based on our findings, we recommend Habitat for Humanity MW/GW continue improving upon this tool by adding more data topics like repair history and editing the homeowner application to guarantee smooth data entry.
