“We are blessed in so many ways. You have made the smoke go away, you have made the sickness heal. Thank you for our health.”
“We used to wonder where our next meal was coming from. With this stove, that has become easier. We can now use whatever extra money we save for food.”
“Life is beautiful when you can spend time with family and friends in your home.”
“I feel at peace, and it’s nice to know that I am not working to pay for someone else’s future but for mine instead.”
Since receiving Healthy Home Kits, Magdalena and Sandra’s lives have changed significantly, and for the better.
“I told him that we were going to save a little bit of money. Then, we were going to go to Habitat. And then, we were going to get our children back.”
The crew worked tirelessly. Throughout the day, they passed concrete into the new houses, stacked blocks, and tied rebar after rebar.
