Paper Houses Across the Border is a non-profit humanitarian organization dedicated to forming partnerships with the people struggling to survive in the colonias along the U.S. border. The goal of Paper Houses Across the Border 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. We especially focus on children and families in need of food, water, and shelter. We recognize the dignity in work and are dedicated to helping people help themselves. See http://www.paperhouses.org |
