Mexico Build – January 2020
One Small House Makes A Big Difference
Over the past ten years, OSH has built 75 homes in rural Mexico, the Mississippi Delta, Haiti and Shreveport, Louisiana. Thanks to the tremendous support of our donors and volunteers, we’ve been able to help countless families. And because we’re run entirely by volunteers, we’re able to promise that your donations go directly towards helping these families. A special thanks to everyone who has helped in our simple mission.
Our Next Build: Meet The Sanchez Family
For our next project, we’ll be back in Mexico for our annual winter build (although a few weeks late) on January 20, 2020. We’ll be building for Cristobal Sanchez, his wife Reyna de Jesus and their two kids Gabriel and Danna. This family was supposed to receive a home last year, but because of zoning issues in the neighborhood, it was delayed. They’ve remained incredibly grateful and patient for anything we can do. Finally, we’ll be able to get them into the new home they deserve. But only with your help! As always, every dollar we receive will go directly into this project. Any amount helps!

HAITI: Zakarie and his family have struggled since their home was severely damaged by Hurricane Matthew. Zakarie is a mason and farmer, but is currently unable to find work. Zakarie is taking care of his wife, elderly parents, and 2 children. Sometimes they make the long 6hr journey into Port-au-Prince to try and sell things in the markets, but they barely get by. This photo is where Zakarie and his family used to live. There were 6 people living and sleeping in this structure, and they were in desperate need of a sound home to live in. Thanks to your help, Zakarie and his family are now living in a brand new home! Click here to see photos from the build!
