Rebuilding Homes.
Restoring Hope.
Since Hurricane María, House of Hope PR has been restoring storm-damaged homes — and the families inside them — one roof, one kitchen, one neighbor at a time.
God's hands and feet — serving Puerto Rico
When Daniel and Marilyn Henderson arrived in Puerto Rico just weeks after Hurricane María, the island was devastated — homes gone, no power, no water. They couldn't look away.
They began handing out food and bottled water, then patching one roof, then another. They replaced windows and doors. What started as simple acts of help became a calling — and House of Hope Ministry — Ministerio Casa de Esperanza was born.
"Humbly serving the Lord by humbly serving those in need." — Daniel Henderson, Founder & President
Full home restoration — top to bottom
We don't just patch a wall. We make houses safe, dry, and livable again — so families can come home to dignity and peace.
Roof Repair
We seal and coat the roof and scrape and repaint ceilings inside — putting an end to the leaks that ruin a home.
Interior & Exterior Paint
Where paint is chipping and peeling, we scrape it back and repaint inside and out — protecting the home and renewing its spirit.
Kitchen Repair
Running water and working plumbing — plus new cabinets, counters and sinks — so families can prepare sanitary meals again.
Bathroom Repair
A fully functioning shower, toilet and sink — the basic dignity every household deserves.
See the transformations
Drag, swipe, or use the arrows. Every one of these homes was somebody's everything — restored by faith, sweat, and generosity.

It takes a community to rebuild one. Here's how you can help restore homes and lives in Puerto Rico.

Your gift buys lumber, paint, plumbing and tools. No donation is too small — every dollar goes to work on a home.

Stories from the field — in the words of the volunteers who served.
Miriam posed for a photo, expressing her gratitude for the restoration of her home — and her renewed hope.
The kitchen got a complete transformation — new cabinets, counter and sink. The homeowner was extremely grateful; her smile spoke volumes.
This home needed major restoration. With God at the helm, we did a complete transformation — and she is so grateful for her newly restored kitchen.
