With this report we strive to provide our donors with updated information concerning developments within our program "Familias en Obra."
In lieu of presencial visits, we have shifted our support of these families to the virtual space. Creative tutorials related to housing renovation, repair, and maintenance created by the architects who contribute to the program are sent to the families via WhatsApp. As a result, we are currently channeling our efforts towards the establishment of a post-quarantine strategy.
We provided 10 families with loans to improve their houses, helping them to improve their quality of living. But we still need help to provide 10 families witch loans in order to continue their construction and improve their household.
In addition, we are identifying professionals within the neighborhoods in fields required in the construction process. These include carpenters and electricians. By working in the most local way possible, we reduce required transportation of materials from the capital city to the surrounding neighborhoods of the province and thus minimize the risk of contagion.
We are - in the name of every participant of the program “Familias en Obra“- enormously grateful for your support as donor. Your trust in our initiatives is an important source of motivation to overcome all the challenges we face in the daily working process. Thank you!
