An Arial Home is constructed of highly insulated steel panels
that fit together like Lego's. The home is pre-fabricated in a nearby
Arial Home factory so that no on-site sawing or cutting is required. A
team of 12 volunteers can typically assemble an Arial Home in one day.
An Arial Home provides the family with a living/kitchen room, a bedroom, a bathroom with toilet and shower, and a large, multipurpose sink in the kitchen area. For most families it is the first time they have running water or an indoor bathroom. For some, it is the first time they have electricity or slept in a bed. For others, it is the first time they have a home that has more than one room.
