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.  My fundraising ID Code is 07VTCC019 - 19069.


I will be spending 8th-16th December in India, building houses with Habitat for Humanity as part of a community challenge team.  We will be working side-by-side with local people to help them build simple, decent homes.  The new homeowners are all on low incomes and live in poverty housing.  They have to invest hundreds of hours of labour into building their own house and the homes of their neighbours.  £1235 is the average cost of a Habitat for Humanity house.

The beauty of this scheme is that the new homeowners pay for their home, at cost, and the repayments go into a revolving fund for more house building.  This means any donation you can make now will be recycled time and time again into additional houses.

Habitat for Humanity's mission is to eliminate substandard housing worldwide.


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.
