Homes For The Homeless – India
CAI has constructed over 500 homes for people without housing across India, especially in the slums of Mumbai and remote areas of Uttar Pradesh. These homes are simple one-bedroom affairs with a loft, bathrooms, an open kitchen, and a hand pump. This gift is invaluable to the homeless and desperate widows with children, freeing rent money for expenses like food or education.

Portacabins For Afghan Earthquake Victims
The devastating earthquake in western Afghanistan created havoc and destroyed many homes about three months ago. With killer winter around the corner, CAI scrambled to get insulated portacabins for some of the victims, primarily widows with children, possibly saving the lives of 64 families from the brutal winters that batter the country.

Two More Tube Wells For Tanzania
Potable water in rural Tanzania is a luxury for the thousands of poor villages that suffer the pains of having to fetch from faraway murky and contaminated ponds. Children lose an hour or more from school daily to fetch water for toilet use. CAI sponsors a deep water well at such schools, close to where villages benefit. Hundreds of villages have received such assistance.
