This Giving Tuesday, we want to share something special.
Our TEDx talk isn’t yet released on the official TEDx channel, but YOU—our community, our supporters, our believers—deserve to hear this story first.
For nearly a decade, InOurHands has worked to prove that radically affordable, climate-resilient housing is not only possible… it already exists. And we’ve only made it this far because of your enthusiasm, encouragement, and faith in this mission.
So today, we’re offering you an early, exclusive viewing of our TEDx talk—a talk we poured our hearts into, and one we hope will help spark a national conversation about what’s possible when we refuse to accept the status quo.
👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUW6Ijde7QY
As a small nonprofit tackling one of the biggest challenges in the country, we depend on public support to keep this work moving forward.�If this talk resonates with you—if you believe housing should be equitable, resilient, and within reach for every family—we invite you to donate today.

Thank you for standing with us, believing in us, and helping build a future where no one is left behind.�It truly is InOurHands.

Welcome to the future of housing.
We’re excited to announce the launch of our brand new website—a first glimpse into the next chapter of InOurHands.
For the first time, we’re sharing our strategy to scale housing like never before:�
✅ A new modular, tilt-up panel system that builds faster, better, and cheaper.�
✅ A training institute in Taos, NM to equip the next generation of builders.�
✅ A proven model that began on the Pine Ridge Reservation and is now poised to serve the world.
If you care about climate, justice, and human dignity—this is your invitation to get involved.
👉 Take a look. Share it. Let’s build what comes next.�🔗 https://inourhands.love

Our team of builders, scientists, and systems thinkers is creating a new model for housing: one that's radically affordable, climate-resilient, and designed to scale.

🔨 We’ve built the system. Now we need your support to build the future.

InOurHands has proven that radically affordable, climate-resilient housing is possible — and it works.

✅ Our homes are code-compliant, fireproof, mold-proof, and energy-efficient
✅ They’ll survive tornadoes, wildfires, -50°F winters, and earthquakes.
✅ We’ve trained dozens of builders and completed homes that are already lived in
✅ And we’ve created a building system that’s not just better — it’s replicable, teachable, and ready to scale

But here’s the truth:
None of this reaches the public without your support.

We’re not a typical corporation. We’re a nonprofit movement building what the market won’t — and we’re almost there. But to open our doors to students and communities nationwide, we need to raise $1 million.

💡 Your donation will help us:

Purchase essential equipment to scale construction

Build out our school and training campus in Taos, NM

Develop a robust curriculum and certifications

Construct and showcase our new example homes to train students and serve as replicable prototypes

Continued follow up with our students to provide support in their communities

📣 This is how we make our homes publicly available. This is how we keep training affordable.
Your support = skilled builders, safer homes, real jobs, and resilient communities.

💚 We’ve proven the system works. Now help us put it in the hands of the people who need it most.

👉 Donate now: https://inourhands.love/donate

Because the future isn’t just something to wait for. It’s something we build — together.

Thank you Sam Bentley for covering our work! A lot of exciting new developments are in the works in our world. Due to extraordinarily high demand, we’re building a training institute in Taos, NM where we’ll be able to teach and license our building technique to aspiring developers eager to bring these homes to their own communities. That said, our primary focus is shifting from building to workforce development, with the goal of making our homes more widely available. Additionally, we’ve been doing a lot of R&D, and are working to bring 3 additional, novel units to market. To inquire about our training opportunities, you can reach me at [email protected], and if you’d like to support our charitable efforts, visit https://inourhands.love/donate.
