Support From Homes to Houses
Detraibile fiscalmente
Amidst the coronavirus pandemic, our community has gathered together to support healthcare heroes on the home front. However, many underdeveloped countries have not had the infrastructure and support to do so. In an effort to assist these countries in adjusting to the pandemic, Run for Opportunity will be funding From Houses to Homes, a non-profit organization working to improve housing, education, and health care in Guatemala.
Due to the pandemic, one of our founders (Ryan), had to cancel his service trip to Guatemala where he and his peers would have volunteered for the From Houses to Homes organization. Though the cancellation was heartbreaking, through Run For Opportunity's virtual 5k/1 mile fun run, our community can still make a difference.
Run For Opportunity plans to aid From Houses To Home with the donations we receive. Learn more about donations by visiting the our website and don't forget to check out From Houses To Home's website .
You can even Venmo us @runforopportunity! Anything helps!

"In 2004 From Houses to Homes became a registered 501(c)3 in the state of New Jersey. The first home was built in 2005 by Joe, and Oscar along with the help of 2 young men that Joe had met while previously volunteering.
We started building homes in 2005, however we realized that housing, education and health care go hand-in-hand to break the cycle of poverty. “Escuela Kemna'oj” is a Pre K- 9th grade school, which we have operated since 2011. Many of the families whose children attend the school live in homes constructed by FHTH.
Responding to the need for quality health care we opened up St. Josephs Clinic in 2011. On average we treat 300 people a month, with approximately 65% of those being women/ girls."
