Summary
Helping people & a village in Haiti to restore home through building domes using local materials and local labor. http://kingwawa.com/Home.html
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
Haiti is trying to recover from a disasterous earthquake and, while there have been pledges of money and support, almost none of this has actually reached the small villages in the heart of rural Haiti. Many people are living without any shelter and are exposed to very adverse living conditions. There is little hope for recovery unless people from outside Haiti, like yourself, give generously. All donations go directly to the people with administrative costs to manage the project under 5%.
How will this project solve this problem?
It will train people in building dome style shelters using local materials and local labor at very low and affordable costs to these impovrished people.
Potential Long Term Impact
The project is sustainable over the long-term with continuing benefits from the people throughout rural Haiti and in these small villages, learning how to build high quality, safe and durable housing from local materials and using local labor.
