Description

The Build: In cooperation with our partner organization, Homes of Hope, we provide transportation to and from the San Diego airport on arrival and departure days. All meals, housing and ground transportation are included. Building materials, house furniture and tools will be supplied. Building foremen, translators and hosts will guide the building process and make your building experience meaningful and impactful. There will be jobs for everyone. We teach the building skills needed to complete the home. The concrete foundation will be pre-poured and the construction will begin upon arriving at the job site. The family will be pre-selected based on the Homes of Hope three-step interview process. Build participants will have the opportunity to interact and build alongside the family receiving the home.

The Ojeda Ortiz family is a family of seven that lives in Rosarito, Mexico. They heard about the Homes of Hope program thru a flyer they found on the ground. The entire family lives on $45/week. The parents support the family making bread for a living. Due to high living expenses and low income the family doesn’t have the resources to put food on the table. They currently share 3 small mattresses on the ground. The family has dreamed of a house to live in where each family member has their own bed. Jose, the middle child wants to live in a house so that he can decorate it for Christmastime. All seven family members were enthusiastic enough to individually hand write letters expressing their situation and need for a home. Despite not having enough money to support themselves the Ojeda Ortiz family is extremely and desperately for your help to improve their lives.
