If only to get inspired again, this Thursday evening, after praying and thinking about what we need to do to accomplish the goal of a home for all…I read one of the original copies of NO MORE SHACKS…(WE HAVE THEM FOR A DONATION AT OUR HEADQUARTERS) ..by Millard Fuller..

 

Ch. 9 leads off…There is no doubt about it…The resources both material and human, sufficient to house everybody already exist. Building materials in an abundant variety are scattered over the earth. It is true that in some places the necessary supplies are not immediately adjacent to a particular construction site. It is also true that extra creativity may be required in order to build in some areas. But adequate materials of one kind or another are available.”  Furthermore there is enough money in the world to house everybody, not in mansions, not in opulent villas with saunas, swimming pools, and tennis courts. But simple decent houses can be built for every family. There is enough money for that….

 

To that end we recommit ourselves to help with that mission..to Caifu, to Port au Prince, to Sonsonate El Salvador to southwest Yonkers and northern Chapaqua, to Somers to South Central to Tecate to Tuckahoe, to your town and city…….
