About Me
Hey friends and family! I have decided to go on a Habitat for Humanity build trip to Warsaw, Poland this October! Our team will focus on renovating and adapting existing housing units owned by the partner families, improving families' living conditions and allowing them to live happier, healthier lives! I am excited for this journey and opportunity to demonstrate the love and teachings of Jesus, acting in all ways in accord with the belief that God's love and grace abound for all, and that we must be the "hands and feet" of that love and grace in our world. Any donation will be greatly appreciated and put toward our trip!
More Info
Poland is experiencing a severe affordable housing shortage, where low-income families often have no choice but to live in substandard housing that threatens their health and safety.
- Almost 1 in 4 apartments in Poland should be condemned.
- Approximately 1 in 8 homes do not have a kitchen.
- Almost 1 in 10 share a toilet with an entire floor of apartments or have no indoor facility at all.
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.
