We provide safe and dignified housing for those in need, ensuring families have a place to call home.
Our Actions
The Building Lives program helps reduce the housing deficit by providing a dignified and safe home for vulnerable families who lack the resources to build a roof of their own, thus contributing to the solution of the housing problem in the Archdiocese of Santiago, Dominican Republic

Ways to Collaborate
We Must Continue Our Mission
We can’t do this lifesaving work without your help.
Private funding is needed now more than ever to ensure that our most vulnerable brothers and sisters can count on us—to help them build a home, feed their families, and rebuild their lives.
When you give, you help transform lives, families, and entire communities.
There are many ways your generosity can support the different programs of Cáritas Arquidiocesana de Santiago, transforming the lives of those most in need. Your contribution is 100% tax-deductible, allowing you to receive valuable tax benefits while making a meaningful donation.



At each house key handover, the family receives a visit and blessing from Deacon Johnny Díaz, Deacon Marcos, the Bishop of the Diocese of Santiago, Monsignor Héctor Rafael Rodríguez, and the local priest.
Resources
Support for the program comes from donations, inter-institutional collaborations, sales of promotional items, and other contributions.
