Muhammad Ali once said that "Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth." I'm raising funds for the March 2020 build in Zambia. Join me in this journey!

There is something transformative about witnessing gratitude and grace…all for receiving the most fundamental of human needs – shelter. But it’s so much more than the brick and mortar and roof that make up the shelter...It is hope. It is safety. It is a new beginning.
I have been so blessed, enriched, and humbled by the Habitat for Humanity builds that I have been privileged to join over the past several years. I’m looking forward to serving in Zambia in March 2020 alongside a great community and with an amazing team of volunteers, including my sister-in-law! I invite you to be part of this journey with me too. There are many ways you can help – by praying for the people of Zambia and our mission team, by spreading the word, and if so led, by contributing a monetary donation to this mission. ANY amount that you so generously give is applied directly to offset trip costs and to buy building supplies for Habitat Zambia.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
Habitat for Humanity Zambia opened its doors in 1984, when it started building houses for fishing families on Kabuyu Island. From these small beginnings, HFHZ built more than 1,700 houses, and has expanded into six of the country’s nine provinces.
HFHZ builds in both rural and urban areas. The houses are simple but high quality, with separate sleeping, cooking and living areas. The design is such that homeowners have the option of extending the house as they can afford it in the future.
Global Village is Habitat for Humanity’s international volunteer program. Teams travel to over 40 countries to work alongside communities, build housing solutions, and experience local culture. Our goal is to change the lives of the people we serve, as well as the lives of the volunteers.

About Habitat for Humanity International
Driven by the vision that everyone needs a decent place to live, Habitat for Humanity began in 1976 as a grassroots effort on a community farm in southern Georgia. The housing organization has since grown to become a leading global nonprofit working in more than 1,300 communities throughout the U.S. and in more than 70 countries. Families and individuals in need of a hand up partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. Through financial support, volunteering or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves. Through shelter, we empower. To learn more, visit habitat.org.
