"Plastic Bags on Head Save Dishes on Hand"

Project Home Works Service Story
 
Jocelyn is at Project Home Works!

Model Jocelyn Luko and her husband Anthony Sandstrom repaired ceiling for Grandma Fok on 6 August. The couple is happy to bring our 78-year-old elderly a decent home and a joyful day, and they urge people to serve in Project Home Works especially on their birthday, making the day a blessing to those in need.

Fiji Recovers Faster Than Expected

It has been 6 months since Cyclone Winston stuck Fiji in February 2016. Habitat has assisted 6,483 families by distributing emergency shelter kits. This surpassed our target of 5,000 families, thanks to village headmen who helped Habitat locate families in remote areas. When the Cyclone hit, Veniana survived under a tree shelter. Now, she is starting a life full of hope in a shelter brought by Habitat.

Veniana's Nightmare

Unforgettable Smile

Dieu est la
Early July 2016, volunteers from Faithful+Gould and Atkins joined Habitat Philippines to build homes for Bantayan Island families, a place worst hit by Typhoon Haiyan in 2013. Our volunteer Anthony Chung shared, “I was touched by a mother and son who were digging trenches with me and I could sense unspoken gratitude behind their smiles.”  
Ricardine and Roman Laventure’s children are healthier, happier and going to school since moving into their Habitat home in the Léogâne community of Santo, Haiti. The family is able to rebuild their life after the 2010 earthquake. On the front door of Ricardine Laventure’s house in Santo are the words “Dieu est la” — in English, “God is here”. It is the faith and hope that brings them resilience.
