— THE CRISIS

Walls That Won't Last Another Rainy Season.

In Malawi, most families live in poverty, in homes of mud and thatch that wash away with the rains. Every storm means starting over. Rebuilding the same fragile shelter, losing it again. A permanent brick home ends that cycle, giving a mother and her children safety that finally lasts.

— OUR RESPONSE​

Homes for Life.

Four solid walls, a roof, and a future that truly lasts.

A Home for Life gives a woman and her children something poverty has always denied them: a permanent, safe place of their own. Built with local labour and materials made to last, it shelters a family from the weather, from the dangers of having nowhere safe to turn, and does so for generations to come.

One Home. Five Transformations.

Solid walls and a door that keep a whole family protected.

Health

— THE PROCESS

How We Build a Home.

Identify the Family

We find women and children enduring homelessness or unsafe, collapsing shelter. Assessing each family’s situation and land so every new home goes where it is needed most.

Build With Local Labour

Durable materials and local builders create a home designed to last for decades. Creating local jobs while every wall, roof and door is built to withstand the seasons.

Hand Over the Keys

A family receives a permanent, safe home of their own. Security that lasts a lifetime, a base where children can go to school and a mother can finally rest without fear.

Build a Lasting Home.

A permanent, safe home changes everything. For her, her children, and the generations that follow.
