Rose Andre lives with her husband Benjamin and their 2 children Romial (9) and Rosenaika (2). Rose-Andre sells bananas in a nearby market and Benjamin is a carpenter. They work hard but do not make enough to afford a home. So for 5 years, they have raised their children in an “unbearably hot” tent without access to basic sanitation.
We hope to unlock the potential of this hard working family by relieving them from the harsh burdens of living in an unsafe, unsanitary tent. You can help us change their story and life trajectory by funding their new home.
Investments from private donors allows New Story to pass 100% of public donations straight to home projects.
After five horrific years of living in a dangerous tent, on July 11th, 2015, Rose Andre, her husband Benjamin, and their 2 children moved into their new house – a place for peace, security, legacy, and opportunity.
When asked by our local partner, Mission of Hope, what is different in their new home Rose Andre responded, “There is a big change. In the tent we always felt bad. Now we can breath fresh air and it makes us healthy and happy.”
Rose Andre, her husband Benjamin, and their 2 children along with New Story would like to thank you writing this new story.
The best way to help is too share their story and yours.
