Building Globally During A Pandemic

Learn how Habitat for Humanity El Salvador, Milwaukee Habitat’s longest running global partner, is coping with the pandemic. We speak with Habitat El Salvador staff about the state of affairs and how they’re persevering to serve families in need.

While Global Village Trips are temporarily postponed, we’re constantly working with our partners to determine when it will be safe to enjoy the culture, community and and comradery of these trips once again. Be on the lookout for more updates here, on “Building Globally.” While the pandemic may have halted our ability to travel, it has not stopped us from sending critical funds to help families in need throughout the world.
