We safe and decent homes for families to build new lives, hopes and opportunities

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Materially, in the UK we are so well off by comparison to most of the people of our world. This is a tremendous opportunity for me to do something practical to help a family take a step out of poverty.  Almost 10 million South Africans live in poverty housing - almost 1 in 5. The project has teams of ten volunteers working alongside a family under the supervision of a local builder to build a new home. We will have 10 teams and in one week will build 10 homes for 10 families - In relation to the size of the problem it may not seem like a lot, but you have to start somewhere.

Each house costs £5650 to build. I'm covering all my own costs for transport, accomodation food etc, and donating my unskilled labour to help a family build their new house. This is an appeal for money for the building fund and I very much welcome and appreciate you support and all your donations.


Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Habitat for Humanity will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.

Bryan.
