HOUSING & COMMUNITY
Individuals and families lacking the physical structures or basic elements of proper housing, such as clean water and sanitation, are extremely vulnerable to endemic diseases.
In 2020, 105 million people living in informal settlements, lacking adequate infrastructure and services. Source: IADB
Within these fragile parameters, accessing other basic needs, such as education and livelihood, is a greater challenge.
SUPPORT FOR HOUSING AND COMMUNITY HELPS US TO:
• Build safe and secure homes for the unsheltered.
• Invest in community infrastructures, ensuring access to safe water, sanitary solutions, and solar energy.
• Launch sustainable community development initiatives.
OVERVIEW OF OUR IMPACT:
• We have built a total of 206 homes since 2010.
• This includes a three-year Derac community development in Haiti, which holds 60 of the total homes built to date.
• All homes include water and sanitation facilities to prevent water-borne illnesses.
Our Housing and Community Fund aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goal #11: Sustainable Cities and Communities.
