| HOUSING PROGRAMS |
Impoverished families often live in dirty, leaking and leaning shacks that shock modern sensibilities.
Lacking adequate resources, they gather cast-aside tin, plastic and wood, creating improvised shelters that provide little in the way of comfort.
Instead of providing security, these hovels often breed disease and danger. And their crumbling walls too often mirror a family’s financial, physical and emotional instability.
Children International's housing program was designed to help poor families in dire need. A safe, stable home has the power to transform the lives of poor families.
Depending on a family’s situation, Children International’s housing programs may provide:
Building supplies
Repair materials
New homes
Basic furnishings
Disaster and emergency aid

| Housing program efforts have transformed thousands of lives in meaningful and lasting ways. For impoverished families, having a secure and comfortable home to raise a family is one of the best ways to bridge the gap from poverty to possibility.
