Hands on Houses

We build houses for people who need them most – widows and the very poor – and teach people how to build houses and how to start businesses.

We have developed a new, quick  method of construction that enables us to build high-quality, low-cost houses. 

We have helped to start a small factory in a village called Katankadai, roughly 75 kilometers south of Chennai.   The factory produces components for our houses: wall panels and roofing panels.  We are currently training three workers and providing business for local suppliers and trades (carpenters, welders, masons).

Our work brings us into contact with many people in the local communities and provides us with precious opportunities to see individuals and communities transformed.
