‘HOMES of HOPE’ PROJECT
THE NEED: Homes all across Ukraine have been damaged or destroyed by the war. Thousands of families have the will and desire to rebuild their damaged homes and lives. Unfortunately, most are living in cold, unsanitary basements or make-shift huts during this process.
SOLUTION: HART will provide shelter in the form of mobile homes for families during this reconstruction process. Once the house is livable, the mobile home is moved to another location to bless a family going through the same circumstances.
Size: 3 x 8 meters (10 x 25 feet)
HOME INCLUDES:
- 2 beds/mattresses
- kitchen cabinets
- refrigerator
- table and 2 chairs
- shower
- toilet
- water heater
- wooden stove
Mobile ‘Homes of Hope’ Project Overview
PURPOSE: To provide temporary shelter for families as they rebuild their homes and lives that have been damaged/destroyed by the war.
RE-PURPOSE STRATEGY: Once a family rebuilds their original house, the modular home is relocated to support another family in need, continuing the cycle of hope and restoration.
COST/HOME = $5,000 USD. This covers construction, transportation, delivery, and installation. We are actively negotiating with local businessmen and international partners to further reduce this cost.
HOW MANY HOMES HAVE WE BUILT SO FAR? We’ve built almost 100 homes for needy families.
CONSTRUCTION PROCESS: We currently operate our factory in southern Ukraine, employing individuals from local churches and nearby communities.
HOW ARE LOCATIONS CHOSEN? Partner churches in targeted towns identify and recommend the families most in need. They work closely with the local governments, who are grateful for these homes being made available in their communities.
LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY: Once the war ends and these mobile homes are no longer needed as emergency shelters, they will be repurposed as permanent cabins at HART’s partner camp facilities across Ukraine—each one offering a safe, comfortable space for 6–8 children during summer programs and retreats.
