UPDATE ON THE BUILD PROJECT : November 5-12
This is going to be a massive effort. And the planning has been thorough. The first team, MY team,  will consist of over 400 international volunteers. This is the beginning of back to back projects for this earthquake epicenter town. 


Habitat started working almost immediately after the quake in partnership with families there to envision a new community that will be called "SANTO". Habitat has been working with the new homeowners to address all the needs the community will have including water, sanitation, schools, infrastructure, employment, environmental concerns, house designs, and selecting the first families to help. They have been training them at a resource center and they will be joining us in the build project. 


Each year President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn give a week of their time to lead volunteers in building homes and raising awareness of the need for affordable housing. The Carter Work Project will be ongoing in Haiti for 2011 - 2012. Plans are to start with 100 core houses and eventually provide 500 families with a healthy secure place to grow and thrive.
