Two amazing people saw the housing crisis and decided to do something about it using money from an inheritance and incredible personal leadership.
What followed was inspiring:
• A clear purpose to help 15 homeless or at-risk women build their own tiny homes.
• Not a handout, participants worked on the builds themselves.
• Support from an expert: training, skills, and encouragement.
• Lessons in resilience - riding the highs, lows and showing up.
• Asking for help when it’s needed.
• The power of self-belief: “I just saw me and my potential.”
• A vision once unthinkable, secure home ownership after years of instability.

“It produced so many results in women and children that were way beyond what I imagined. They have something real in the world that they own, that's theirs to do with what they want.”
For anyone who needs a dose of inspiration today — this is it. 🌱
