The first project Adobe for Women will be in Mexico , helping 20 women in the indigenous villages of San Juan Mixtepec and Santiago Ayuquillila , in the State of Oaxaca .
The houses are energy efficient and built with local materials such as clay and bamboo.
Each house costs only 3 830,84€!
For these 20 women will very little economical resources, the opportunity to have their own home is the dream of a lifetime.
We need to raise 76 616.80€ to achieve our first goal.
However, building may begin as soon as money for the first house is raised. This way, step-by-step, house-by-house, we are confident that we will achieve what we set ourselves out to do.
“I believe the story of these women is a lesson about life for all of us: with a little help, great projects can be achieved.”
Marcela Taboada, Photographer of the Mujeres de Arcilla project in the 90’s
FUTURE GOALS
Our goal is to increase project visibility as well as generate added value for donors.
We dream of being able to implement this project or similar in other countries, many of which have the same needs and where a place decent enough to call a home is needed.
We also intend to multiply our partners and contacts and be able to create more and better answers to the social needs we commit to.
