Boost your Home
Boost your Home is a foundation dedicated to the construction of social housing and community infrastructure in low-income communities. This initiative has a social inclusion policy that promotes participatory processes in the design and production of housing, where communities and families participate in all stages of construction. In addition, this initiative provides training to communities on the proper use of construction technology. Boost your Home has benefited more than 1 million people in 28 of Mexico's 32 states.
