Over a billion people live without adequate shelter.
That’s 14% of the world’s population. Put another way, that's 1 in 8 people alive today living without hope amongst trash, sewage, drugs, and abuse in unimaginable conditions. Life without secure housing is a life without basic needs being met. Families living without safety, stability, education and nutrition lack dignity and hope for the future.
Our vision is to change this.
Progress To Date
World Housing provides homes to the most vulnerable families around the world. Communities thrive where families live with dignity, safety and access to the resources that change their lives forever.
World Housing's work is supported by Benefactors who pay for the organization’s operating costs. This allows us to commit 100% of all public donations to funding homes.
FUNDED
We fund projects that provide safe housing to those that need it most throughout the world.
HOUSED
People who receive World Housing homes become markers of generational impact.

Where We Are Building 2025
You can help build these life changing homes.
World Housing homes cause a ripple effect, and those ripples change lives.
We believe in housing first. A new home means a new start, the beginning of a life with safety, and security as a foundation.
By aligning strategically with like-minded organizations, World Housing is revolutionizing the approach to solving the housing crisis. With a global community of donors and NGO-building partners, World Housing builds communities that include the key pillars of sustainable change: safe housing, access to nutrition, safe water, health, and education.
This stability provides children with a solid foundation to pursue education which ultimately raises the standard of living for themselves, their families, and future generations to come.
