About Home for a Home

The word “home” can mean different things to all of us. One thing that is universal is the understanding that having a safe, solid place to call home can be the catalyst for positive change in a person’s life.

Home For A Home is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with the mission of providing homes for people in need and dramatically improving their lives. Since its formation in 2012, Home for a Home has funded over 550 projects, providing families with a safe and secure place to call home.

Home For A Home has invested over $1 million in improved housing solutions —including earthquake-safe concrete block homes, wood-burning stoves, and water filters — for more than 500 families in Guatemala. The results have been nothing short of life-changing. Clean water has eliminated preventable waterborne illnesses and decreased mortality rates among children. Replacing dirt floors with cement has significantly improved children’s health and cognitive development, which means kids read earlier and perform better in school. Families can cook their meals on stoves that decrease smoke particles by 98%, reducing air pollution and cutting their wood bill in half. Entire communities are being transformed as more and more families establish permanent roots and work to build a better future.

Together, we can continue to build better futures, one home at a time.
