Homes for Jubilee offers Hope. In one of the worst slums in the Western Hemisphere, a town ironically named "Jubilee," ultra-low-cost, disaster-resistant homes are being built. Jubilee is the garbage dump of Gonaives, Haiti. Unwanted people and trash are thrown away there. But changes are taking place. Homes are being built and along with them, hope and lives. This book offers an example of what can be accomplished in trying places under austere conditions, in the hope that others will similarly challenge themselves. Homes for Jubilee is being published in English and Haitian Creole, and is available for translation into other languages. Please help us build a better world, one home at a time.
