Most of them are squatters and not allowed to rebuild, so they have to move to another area, but still near here.

They all had permission in the past to live there, and some family's have lived on the same land for generations. But as the land got passed down through time... the grandchildren that now own it, just want to sell.

Erning who will live in the 8X10 hut in the photos above, I let transfer to the front corner of our place for now, just a few feet from where he lived before. we don't use the space or need it for now and we can always carry his hut to another location later if we do need the space.

I only plan to provide the labor for one more family for a 10X12, but the others can rebuild themselves with the materials we have given them.

I plan to get photos of all of the family's we have helped so far to post here, and will get photos of their new places also when they are ready.
