I am raising funds to support
All Five Families
Hola a todas y todos! My name is Marina and I have been volunteering with TECHO for almost a year now. I am excited to support and help fund more TECHO building trips, as well as get the chance to meet and work with more TECHO families! Please consider donating to this "Roof of Hope" challenge and/or find out more about TECHO by exploring what they do and how on their website. Thank you!
Where does your donation go?
The Project
With your contribution, TECHO will be able to give all these five families a new home. It takes two full days to build one house. The home stands on 12 piles and is raised from the ground to protect from moisture, floods, and pests. The home is made out of prefabricated wood panels, which allows beneficiary families and volunteers to participate in the construction without considerable technical training.
The Impact
TECHO will use all donations raised by the participants in this competition to build these five families a new home. If this campaign exceeds the fundraising target needed to build houses for the five families listed as beneficiaries, TECHO will use the surplus to support the construction of new homes for other needy families.
