HelpArgentina is a nonprofit that allows international donors to identify and support high impact nonprofits in Argentina.
Our goal is to strengthen the nonprofits working to create social change in Argentina, increase confidence in the nonprofit sector and promote the culture of giving among Argentines.
Our mission is to contribute to the support and development of individuals and families, by means of programs that facilitate access to a decent home.
We work to create opportunities that enable access to one's own home to become a reality, without providing handouts, but prioritizing the involvement of the beneficiaries, their personal effort, and mutual help.
More than 7000 families have participated in our programs to date.

Construction Program: In most cases, this program helps to provide families access to their own home.聽 In other cases, the objective is to improve substandard homes, or to provide services, such as the installation of natural gas.聽 In all projects, we start with the integration and organization of the community.聽 In this way, 200 new homes have been built, and more than 170 families have gained access to natural gas.
Sume Materiales: This is a self-sustaining program, that acts as a link between those who have construction materials and items for the home that they no longer need, and those that need them.聽 We collect the materials from the home or company, repair them if necessary, and sell them at a price in accordance with the economic situation of the families.聽 More than 3,500 families have benefited to date from buying materials at a symbolic price.
Home Improvement Program 鈥 ProMeVi: Provides group micro loans on a solidarity lending basis, for the construction or gradual improvement of the home, together with technical and social support and advice.聽 The program carries out its activities in the northern part of Greater Buenos Aires, where to date more than 3,000 families have taken part.
