Hi Friend,

They say every brick has a story to tell. Well, we have a new story to tell about bricks. That story includes us making more than 10,000 bricks this year as part of our Building Better program in Kambiri, Kenya.

For millennia, people have been using dried, compressed, and fired bricks to build. Bricks that didn’t last. Buildings that fell apart. Now there is a new kind of brick. And with it, new opportunities to build sustainably, for less money and less harm to the environment.

Last year our partners built a school with new interlocking stabilized soil bricks. Last month we built a rainwater catchment tank. What will people build next? Join our Chat to find out how you have made this happen.
