Resumo: Every day, the hosting organization works beside families to build, renovate or repair their home in 70 countries around the world. Driven by the vision that everyone needs a decent place to live, Habitat has served more than 39 million people since it began in 1976.
Simple homes save lives. Families are healthier, children do better in school and parents have a chance to earn a stable income. The organization advocates to improve access to affordable shelter and support funding models that enable families with limited resources make vital improvements to their homes.
Since 1993 across Ireland the organization has engaged thousands of volunteers in its mission. The organization brings together people from across the community to serve vulnerable people and raises fund to support long-term partner programmes in some of the world's poorest communities. Through ReStore, the organization directly tackles poverty in Ireland, helping local families access low-cost materials to improve their homes, providing training and support for people of all ages and backgrounds and diverts tons of material from landfill.
Mobilising volunteers, as effective advocates around the critical need for housing in breaking the cycle of poverty, is a strategic priority. The organization seeks to deepen participation and understanding of the Sustainable Development Goals through development education and awareness raising.
ESC volunteers will find an open, welcoming and diverse operation which provides a broad range of roles.
