The Build-A-House program exists to help provide safe, reliable housing for widows and families in vulnerable communities.

Many live in structures that offer inadequate protection from the elements, adding extra burden to daily life. Through this program, My Father’s Heart works to build modest homes that are thoughtfully designed to improve everyday living.

These homes are built with intention—offering solid walls, proper doors and windows, basic sanitation, and light—so families can experience greater safety, stability, and peace in their daily lives.

Each home is unique, and costs may vary by project. A modest house can often be built for approximately $1,500, though actual needs and expenses differ.

Gifts to Build-A-House help make these homes possible by contributing toward materials, labor, and essential infrastructure—creating more than a house, but a place to call home.
