Highly effective preventative medicine — no wonder our families get sick less often.
Education
Safe, stable place to do homework
Imagine going to school if you can’t sleep at night. Kids get degrees their parents only dreamed of.
Income
A launchpad for small business
Study shows entrepreneurship rate among families tripling after moving into Fuller Center homes.
Self-worth
Finally feeling like you belong
Never again embarrassed to let your friends see where you live.
Strong families
Home is a garden where families grow
Lower stress + less overcrowding + more stability = healthier families
Whole Communities
Strong families build healthy communities
Demonstrating love and concern for your neighbors is built into our program.
Why It Works
Partnership
Local Leadership
Built with Love
Homeowner families are full partners in the construction process, providing “sweat equity” and paying it forward to their neighbors on a no-interest basis.
Every Fuller Center is initiated and led by locals so that the work is appropriate and the process empowers the community.
Volunteers not only lower the cost of construction, but add “Love in the Mortar Joints” so that “every home is a sermon of God’s love,” as our Founder Millard Fuller put it.
