Habitat for Humanity El Salvador – 2008 Navidad en Acción (Christmas in Action) Habitat and non-habitat houses

Sonsonate, El Salvador – 2008. These photos were provided by Dennis Mialki who is an engineer and Habitat volunteer from Charlotte NC. He was in El Salvador for several months and worked on a number of Habitat houses in the Sonsonate area and did a lot of logistical preparation for the Navidad en Acción Blitz Build. These photos are of other Habitat builds in the area and more importantly, photos of the houses that many of the families were living in prior to getting their Habitat house. A very stark contrast
