Building differently so that families can live better

At Shelters Africa, we aim to strengthen the communities that we operate in by providing work opportunities to women there.

Our homes are built by women and for women We work with Women to build more Affordable homes as a way of consolidating peace, protecting the environment, and generating sustainable incomes.

Focus Areas
