One of the projects we have is to build houses, churches, schools and water purification plants in some Bateyes. We have worked in Batey 50, 105, 106. The houses are usually a duplex with 3-4 rooms. We also hope to provide some basic furniture, such as beds that are made at the El Buen Samaritano General Hospital. The cost of a home is approximately $ 9,000 for one side of the duplex. We praise God who has led us in this way to meet the housing needs.
