About Me

The day that I received the keys to my Habitat home I made a promise, that this would not be the end of my work with Habitat. I promised that the sweat equity hours that I had put in to become a homeowner would be the beginning. Since that day, I have had the great privilege of working for Habitat for Humanity of Palm Beach County to help other families in my community on a path to stability and self-sufficiency. I am honored and humbled to also lead teams of volunteers internationally as a Global Village team leader, and to extend that same hand of friendship to hard working families around the world. By contributing to this build, you will be reaching out your hand, and making a tangible, multi-generational impact. You will be making the world a better place, not just for the families who are helped in India, but for all of us, making a difference, one nail, one brick, one home at a time.

More Info

Thailand’s National Housing Authority estimates nearly 8.2 million of the country’s 67 million inhabitants live in substandard housing.

Poverty is widespread in the rural northeast, far north and far south of the country. Migration from rural areas has placed a strain upon the supply of affordable land. Migrants face high rent for small rooms and often live in overcrowded areas without proper sanitation. Squatter settlements are commonly seen along railway lines or near port and industrial areas.In addition to its traditional homebuilding model, Habitat Thailand uses a progressive building model in which homeowner partners construct a two-room core house with an open space, then add rooms and walls after three years or once a certain amount of the initial mortgage is repaid.

Global Village is Habitat for Humanity’s international volunteer program. Teams travel to over 40 countries to work alongside communities, build housing solutions, and experience local culture. Our goal is to change the lives of the people we serve, as well as the lives of the volunteers.

About Habitat for Humanity International 

Driven by the vision that everyone needs a decent place to live, Habitat for Humanity began in 1976 as a grassroots effort on a community farm in southern Georgia. The housing organization has since grown to become a leading global nonprofit working in more than 1,300 communities throughout the U.S. and in more than 70 countries. Families and individuals in need of a hand up partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. Through financial support, volunteering or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves. Through shelter, we empower. To learn more, visit habitat.org.
