Why we work in Salima
Despite being famous for its Gule wa Mkulu dances, and rich cultural heritage, Salima has an extremely high housing need.
Many children living in Salima have been orphaned as a result of HIV and AIDS which has led to a large number of households being led by children who cannot afford to look after the home.
Housing poverty in Salima means that many of the people in the community live on less than $1 a day.
What will you do?
Expect early starts so that you can begin work before the sun is at it’s highest point. This means you will finish working a few hours before you have dinner. Typical Volunteer Activities include:
- Mixing and passing mortar
- Digging and laying foundations
- Laying bricks
- Plastering new walls

For me, it is so important to have a house that I can be proud to hand over to my children in the future. Fernando - Homeowner in Recife, Brazil
My life has fundamentally changed for the better because of HFH, as have the lives of people we have helped. Livi Warnes, Volunteer Team Leader
Meeting the family and working so closely with the community is nothing short of incredible. I could have spent another year or more with the community, they were all so welcoming. Jemma, volunteer in Kenya 2019

Isn’t it wonderful to be able to give back to your community, even if it’s a small bit? Matt and I spent the morning volunteering at a Habitat for Humanity build, and every time we do things like this it’s always a humbling experience that also gives us renewed pride in our little community. There are so many ways and opportunities to get out there and volunteer your time, talents, and efforts to help your local community and I urge you all to get involved! It doesn’t take much just your willingness to help. Now that it is raining and turned into quite a chilly fall day we’re cozying in with a good snuggly blanket a movie and our hound. Speaking of cozy, how cozy does this family room in sweetshadylane look? I could definitely spend a rainy dreary day like today in it! 📸: sweetshadylane •

We had our annual Gingerbread House decorating today! While some of our designs have simplified drastically due to little fingers assisting, it is still so much fun to see everyone’s creations and one of our favorite traditions every year!

Что общего между зодчим и кондитером? Как ни странно - процесс.
Кондитер берет муку, яйца, специи, соль, сахар по вкусу, смешивает, кладет в печь - получает хлеб, пряники, торт или иное кондитерское изделие.
Зодчий берет глину, замешивает, формует, кладет в печь - получает кирпич.
Затем зодчий берет известь, телегу яиц (без желтка) и получает раствор для кладки.
Зодчий берет цемент, добавляет песок, щебень, пластификаторы, пигмент, соль по вкусу, затворяет водой, кладет в бетономешалку и получает монолитное здание и сооружение.
Зодчий измельчает породу, добавляет ил Нила, затворяет водой, формует - получает египетскую пирамиду в геополимерном бетоне.
Выходит, что все самое необходимое - хлеб и крышу над головой, человек имеет, выполняя одни и те же процедуры - накидать, замесить, уложить, подождать... Строит по рецепту и печет по рецепту. poreceptu.shop , привет!)
⠀
P.S. Версия с геополимерным бетоном официально считается псевдонаучной, потому как доказано, что древнеегипетские лодки вполне способны доставить камень в 800 тонн. Также экспериментально установленно, что всего несколько тысяч человек собственными лошадиными силами с легкостью дотащат от лодки тот самый камень, выпиленный в нескольких сотнях километрав от объекта в карьере бронзовой пилой, которую пока еще не нашли, и взгромоздят его на любую высоту.
