Provide simple decent housing to the most disadvantaged who do not qualify for government housing programs or Habitat for Humanity. Prepare a model for worldwide duplication.
There are 17 million people living in extreme poverty in Mexico who do not qualify for low-cost government housing programs. These people are the beneficiaries. Eventually, this model could be used in other countries for people in similar conditions.
Provide materials, knowledge, labor to build houses; provide programs on community development; prepare manual to be used worldwide
We expect to reduce extreme poverty in rural villages and the number of people who migrate to the United States looking for better living and salary conditions.
"I have witnessed in my experience in social development that the starting point for human development is a decent house. Once this need is covered people can think of nutrition and education. "
