Newsboys builds homes for Mexico's poorest

Just south of the beaches of San Diego, poverty - real poverty - is just 30 minutes away. In stark contrast to towering condos and elegant shops, a short drive across the border will take you where the truly poor live in scraps of wood held together by only a hope and a prayer.

Families live in humiliating conditions; parents are simply unable to provide safe shelter or nutritious meals for their children.
We can make a change. Offer real hope.

An army of volunteers is coming to Mexico. We have hands to hammer and feet to carry materials, but we now desperately need materials – lumber, nails, and roofing. For just $6,000 we can build a house, a real house to provide dignity and hope for a very real family.

The vision is huge – up to 350 homes, a medical clinic, dental clinic, church, and orphanage.

July is our target date for building to begin. Anthony and the Global Tribe board were recently in Baja to finalize the land. The gift of land through the generosity of a local businesswoman is a true Godsend.

There we will build homes with a solid roof, floors, walls with windows, and a door that locks. For only $6,000 we build hope and provide a foundation to change a family forever.

For just $1 a day, you will be a key part in helping a family. Just 20 people giving $1 a day will build a family a home each year. Having the land is great – now we absolutely need building materials.

Collaboration is the key to success. Only working together, will we indeed change the lives of scores of families in the border area of Tijuana and Ticadi, Mexico.

Baja Christian Ministries will coordinate the building, volunteers, and family bible study on site as they have more than 20 years experience.

Teen Mania will bring up to 2,000 volunteers and help fund homes. One5 Foundation will build the medical clinic, and we have a commitment for the dental clinic as well.

Newsboys will continue generating support for homes from those attending the concerts. Global Tribe Partners provide volunteers, funds, and overall coordination of the project., to change the lives of the poor in Baja.
