For $765, a family living in the Pipeline IDP camp in Kenya can go from THIS (make-shift shack constructed with tarps and whatever other water resistant materials can be found that leaks and/or collapses during rain showers)

To THIS (a framed structure with a tin roof and siding that can withstand the rain)

If you want to fund construction of one of these homes for $765, you can head over the the Global Volunteer Network and learn more about Pipeline IDP. Once the materials are purchased, the home can be constructed in just two days. Here is a video with more about the Pipeline IDP:

It’s truly amazing that a mere $765 can make such a huge difference in the lives of an entire family, and after meeting the kids in the community, I can’t help but want to try to help.
