~BUILDERS WITHOUT BORDERS~

Under the direction of Martin Hammer, Builders Without Borders mission is to develop and promote safe, affordable, sustainable, and culturally connected shelter in places of need.  This includes training and active involvement of people in the communities where the work occurs. This collaboration allows the development of appropriate solutions that are owned and stewarded by the local population.   

Haitians Jean Louis Elie, Samuel Alcide and Annio Baptiste were integral members of the Ti Kay Pay construction team.  Jean Louis said, “When people see the construction, then they really accept it. Because it’s ours. The straw is ours. We make it, we live in it.  If we had this kind of house before less people would have died.”
