The Big Picture
Families from Al Aqaba Village ask your help to build colorful, eco-friendly homes on the land they own. 97% of this Palestinian West Bank Village is under demolition order by the Israeli Army. Families want to build their homes because otherwise their village will cease to exist. They will help with construction, repay affordable mortgage loans, and match your donation in this constructive fair housing initiative. Together, let's share the risk and build advocacy to make them safe.
Impact of Your Donation
We found a way to fund construction of affordable, eco-friendly homes when banks do not provide financing by both spreading-out + reducing the risk of demolition: many donors, many advocates.
Total construction cost: $33,000/home. Your donation provides $5,000 down payment, $15,000 mortgage loan, and $4000 to coordinate worldwide outreach. Al Aqaba's Villager's Cooperative Assembly is matching your contribution to $13,000/home. If home is demolished, remaining mortgage loan is forgiven.
