Strength, Stability & Independence, Through Shelter
What We Do
People in your community and all over the world partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat for Humanity Fiji continuously strives to match technologies, materials and methods of assistance. In particular to concern the needs of the most vulnerable in practicality, cost and social acceptability. Thus, below are some of the projects Habitat for Humanity Fiji are involved in.
Shelter
Firstly, we build homes for those that really need it, if a household income is below a certain threshold. Thus, beneficiaries can apply to us for assistance. Furthermore, we also repair homes that do not meet current safety standards. As well as assist during disaster situations.
WaSH
Secondly, we help households by providing clean water systems, and hygiene facilities. For example, wash-rooms and showers. In addition, we can provide safe waste management systems. For instance, safe toilet systems, to help reduce the spread of avoidable diseases.
Developing Community
Thirdly, we provide training to help develop communities. As an example, training to do home building and repair, including WaSH systems. In addition, we provide finance training to help beneficiaries save for their future. For instance, saving for school fees or a new home.
