NGOS ensures micro-casa for homeless in just six hours

Leave a Comment
The tiny houses are no longer appreciated â€" just â€" in Japan, and are now chosen by those who want to live sustainably and with fewer possessions. The United States, as expected, are already at the forefront of this trend, and it is precisely in this country that an NGO (nongovernmental organization) claims credit for building a micro-casa in just six hours.

The goal of Mobile Loaves & Fishes, of Austin, Texas, was able to provide housing for the homeless sites but, says Mashable, the end result exceeded their own expectations.

To reach this concept, Mobile Loaves Fishes 10 years passed & collect funds and plan the development of structures. Today, the first homeless began arriving to the community.

"We will draw 240 people from the streets of Austin and make them living in our community. A tent in the Woods is not going to solve the greatest desire of these people, who live in the community, "explained the Development Director KeyeTV ONG, Donna Emery.

According to Emery, the organization is not just to put a roof over the head of the people, but to build a real community residence. The site has a Community Center, Garden, open-air theatre and a medical centre. Each resident will pay an income, although this is significantly below market value.

Some residents may pay up to €68 ($ 205) per month to live in one of these houses, and the project will be accompanied by an employment initiative for the homeless (ex-sem-abrigo, actually) can afford your home.

According to Mashable, initiatives that get the homeless off the street can save millions to taxpayers â€" according to NGOS, this community will save €7,5 million (US $ 22.7 million) to the taxpayers of Austin, just on healthcare. More important than that: it will lead to many of these evacuees back smiling and feeling me valid members of the community. Now today I have the pleasure of entering for the first time in a long time, in his home.
