Decent housing for construction foremen -Antioquia

Hugo is a master builder who lives in the municipality of Puerto Berrío Antioquia and has been working for 12 years. This municipality has historically been hit by issues of public order.

Hugo has been building his house little by little, since one of his greatest dreams is to give his daughters a home in good condition, a roof to shelter from the rain and have a dignified old age.

The arrival of the covid-19 pandemic stopped the plans of Hugo's family, he was left without a job and it was increasingly difficult to obtain sustenance and food for day to day, due to this event it has been difficult for him to achieve of the materials to continue with the construction of your home.

This situation generates sadness and affliction by not being able to provide health in such an important aspect as feeding their family because the kitchen they had in this home did not allow them to enjoy a healthy diet due to the conditions of the space and handling of food, therefore, physical and emotional health were also affected. However, little by little he has been organizing his home and adapting it within what is within his reach.

Being a beneficiary of this project that transforms lives has meant a dream come true for him since his home is his priority, as is for his wife to be able to prepare quality food for their daughters in a comfortable space specially designed for this function, thus improving your health conditions.

This is one of the 10 master builders who have been beneficiaries of the social project: Decent housing for master builders in Antioquia, with the provision of his kitchen, turning it into a decent space for everyone.

From the ParaConstruir Foundation we continue to deliver materials to our master builders who still do not have decent housing.

With your contribution we will continue to transform the lives of our master builders and their families.

With your contribution you help to transform the social and family environment of the master builder with decent housing.

This is Bayron’s story, he has been building the dreams of those who trust in his workforce for 14 years, he has two daughters and as he proudly tells us - "I managed to get them ahead and with my job I was able to give them an education, that helps them have a better life”, the oldest daughter is a veterinary assistant and the youngest is a dental assistant, they are the ones who move his heart every day and are the engine to continue building the country; One of his greatest dreams has been to improve and transform his home little by little to provide quality, well-being and a decent roof for his daughters and in his old age to obtain the peace of mind that he seeks every day.
