WH provides homes to families living in slums in the developing world, fostering communities where families can thrive with safety, security
OUR MISSION.
World Housing believes that homes are the key turning point where the momentum of community begins to have effects that radiate beyond individuals and into entire families, villages, and countries.
A safe home causes a ripple effect and those ripples change lives. The communities we build empower the world's most vulnerable people to live with access to water, nutrition, health and education. Children who grow up in safe homes have the opportunity to raise the standard of living for themselves, their families, and future generations to come.
WHAT DOES A HOME MEAN TO A FAMILY LIVING WITHOUT?
A new home means a new start, the beginning of a life with safety, security and stability as a foundation. What grows from there is a restoration of dignity and hope for the future. Families and communities begin to thrive, bringing up a new generation of healthy, educated, and inspired leaders for their community.
OUR PROGRESS
World Housing provides homes to families living without a safe home, fostering communities where families can thrive. Since 2013 we've built over 1,050 homes housing 5,000+ people in 9 countries, and we're only getting started.
WHY SUPPORT WORLD HOUSING'S MISSION.
- Since 2013 we’ve funded the construction of 1050 homes, transforming the lives of over 5,000 people in 9 countries around the world, including the Philippines, Mexico, El Salvador, Haiti, Cambodia, Zambia, Brazil & Canada.
- 100% of public donations go towards building homes and transforming the lives of families.
- We use technology to scale our impact. In 2019, we funded the first homes using 3D printing technology in collaboration with our building partners, New Story Charity.
- We partner with local NGO's in each country we build, who use their existing relationships within the communities and governments to streamline the home building process.
- Participatory design is at the heart of what we do. We are hyper-focused on constantly seeking out community and home designs based on the needs of the communities we serve.
