Our project aims to provide transitional shelter using locally sourced materials, including recovered items, for families affected by the earthquake. Each unit costs $100 and is designed to last through the reconstruction period, ensuring security and durability. The construction process involves community involvement and volunteer labor, resulting in 5,125 completed shelters that serve as temporary housing. Assets are secured, families are safe, and materials are reused with a focus on sustainability.
