Replacing a dirt floor with cement substantially changes a home and the health of the family within. We have heard the stories of kids having to have part of their intestines removed because parasites had consumed all they could find elsewhere and started in on the organs. One mother memorably noted that her toddler would be the first of her kids to not eat the floor. And pride counts! A good, cleanable floor, with the color chosen by the family itself, is a game changer and a source of pride for a family.
We appreciate the support we've received, both monetary and through volunteer labor which has enabled us to build, to date, 138 floors, 43 roofs and 45 entire houses.
Mil gracias.
