A safe home transforms a family’s life forever.
This is the impact we build every day alongside families, alliances, donors, and volunteers.
Yet thousands of families in Guatemala still live in unsafe conditions.
Leaking roofs, dirt floors, and unhealthy environments put children at risk every day.
We build dignified homes and community projects that change lives.
For more than 20 years, we have worked with families living in poverty to improve health, education, safety, and long term wellbeing.

How a safe home changes everything
“Our children sleep better and study better. Before, we all slept in one room. Now we have privacy, safety and peace.”
“With my new home I felt motivated to keep improving. We added a kitchen and started saving for the future.”
“Thanks to Constru Casa and the donors, my children now have a safe home where they can grow, learn, and be happy.”
