Habitat for Humanity

"Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI) is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and homelessness worldwide and to making adequate, affordable shelter a matter of conscience and action. Habitat is founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, decent, affordable place to live in dignity and safety. Since its founding in 1976 by Millard and Linda Fuller, Habitat for Humanity International has built and rehabilitated more than 60,000 houses with families in need, becoming a true world leader in addressing the issues of poverty housing."

My folks and I have pounded nails with the best of them (though with Jimmy Carter only in spirit.) Habitat for Humanity helps people to build their own homes and build their own lives. More than hope, it offers the fruits of hope ... and of sweat. Contact your nearest chapter and go out and pound a few yourself. If you don't have a chapter, and if the spirit moves you, start one.
