During this period, the charity has built or help reconstruct over 800,000 homes. Overall, 4 million people have benefited from Habitat for&nbsp;Humanity&#8217;s projects.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191007_134802-1-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191007_134802-1-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191007_134802-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191007_134802-1-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191007_134802-1-770x385.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191007_134802-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ten of these homes were built early October in Vaideeni, a small town in the V\u00e2lcea county in Romania. The ten families for whom the houses were built lived in extreme poverty, many of them having lost their homes in a terrible flood four years ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, they had been living in improvised homes in shipping containers. They had no plumbing or heating, just metal boxes in which they slept and cooked. It was their only shelter and the only way they could raise their small children.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Habitat for Humanity, with Alex&#8217;s help along other approximately 270 volunteers, changed their lives forever. Now, the ten families have proper houses they can call home.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191008_125329-1-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191008_125329-1-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191008_125329-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191008_125329-1-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191008_125329-1-770x385.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_20191008_125329-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;It was amazing to see how happy and grateful they were&#8217;, says Alex, who, besides the actual work, has also raised money for the Vaideeni project.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;It was truly impressive to see hundreds of people from several continents come together and work as a team for those in need.
