Organizations Filed Purposes:
The goal of Project Mercy is the improvement of basic living standards and quality of life for impoverished families who live in conditions precarious to their health in the shantytowns of the colonias east of Tijuana, Mexico.
Project Mercy provided materials and constructed 73 houses. These were wood frame houses with painted plywood exterior built on 16ft by 20ft concrete slabs. 83.5% of the cost was for construction materials and 9.9% of the cost was for local labor performing both finishing work and part of the construction and coordinating with local families. Other expenditures were the reimbursement of travel expenses and management services provided by the Executive Director. Volunteer workers from both the United States and the local Mexican community did all the other labor. Families receiving these houses in Mexico lay the concrete foundation slabs and place the roofing materials. Volunteers from the United States do most of the carpentry and some of the painting.
Project Mercy provided plans and materials for the construction of 73 cement block latrines and outhouses. The latrine pits were all built by the recipient families and the wooden outhouses purchased from a local lumber yard which builds the outhouses especially for the Project Mercy program.
Project Mercy gave food and furniture to 90 different families. This food was donated by various groups and furniture was collected from individuals.
