You build a future on a solid foundation
The January 12, 2010 Haitian earthquake left 1,000,000 people homeless. 600,000 remain homeless today, nearly 40% of them children. Without a permanent home, there is no school for the kids and stable employment is difficult for the parents. 200,000 housing units are needed, but the government of Haiti estimates it will take up to 10 years to build them all. Your Investment in secure housing can help brighten the future of an entire generation.
