Know exactly how your generosity makes a difference

Traditional nonprofits take cuts of your donation to pay themselves. We don’t.

A group of generous families called The Builders cover our operating expenses so you don’t have to. Every dollar you give goes directly to building a home for an at-risk family. That’s our 100% Promise.

Inclusive design that drives impact

Before we build a home, we talk with the family who will live there. Their needs and dreams shape our home design. The human-centered process creates ownership and helps our team build sustainable communities with empathy and efficiency.

Your generosity not only builds a home — it boosts an economy

In many communities, we work with governments to secure land and services like water and electricity that reduce the cost of construction.

Partnerships with local developers also give us expert knowledge of the area’s unique culture. Our commitment to local labor paid at fair wages helps create economic uplift that lasts well beyond our building process.

We believe in earning your trust.

We maintain Gold status on Guidestar, which puts us in the top 0.5% of nonprofits on their site.

We're grateful for your trust and generosity.
