House on stilts

House on stilts
$10,000

Looking for a truly uplifting gift? A house designed and built on stilts allows families in flood-prone areas, ranging from the US Gulf Coast to Cambodia, to keep their heads—and lives—above water. Built 15 to 20 feet off the ground, this house uses a construction technique that can also help people adapt to climate change without having to relocate.

Proceeds from your symbolic gift go to fund Oxfam America’s efforts to create lasting solutions to poverty, hunger, and social injustice in more than 100 countries. See how it works.
