Last November, we have built about 22 transitional houses in a community called Anchieta, in São Paulo, with the joint work of volunteers and residents of the community.
We had more than 360 volunteers involved, working side by side with the families to build not only houses, but also trust to develop other projects to help the whole community, not only a few families.
It was, once again, an unforgettable experience, and perfectly accomplished. Thanks to that weekend, now, 22 families have a better place to call home.
The construction of transitional houses in communities is one of TETO's most important project, not only does it helps to solve an ishue that's clearly urgent, but also, it creates a bond between volunteers and residents, so we can find out what else is urgent for them, what they wish to do for the community and how else can we help.
