In a significant step toward improving living conditions and strengthening community development, 84 families in San Vicente Sur have received new homes after decades of living in vulnerable conditions. The initiative was led by Minister Michelle Sol (@misol140) in collaboration with the General Directorate of Energy, Hydrocarbons and Mines (@GAGsv), The Fuller Center for Housing, New Story Homes, and DelSur Energía (@delsur_energia).
The homes were built through a mutual aid model, empowering families to participate in the construction process and foster stronger community bonds. Each house is designed for progressive development and includes:
- One master bedroom
- Two junior bedrooms
- Living room, dining area, kitchen, bathroom, and patio
- Ceramic tile flooring and French-style windows
“Today marks the end of that period of uncertainty and suffering. We know that for many, winter represented anxiety and fear,” said Minister Michelle Sol. “President Nayib Bukele entrusted us with the mission to guarantee safe and adequate housing—and today, we fulfill that commitment.”
This housing project reflects the government’s broader effort to reduce inequality, improve resilience, and ensure that families live with dignity and security. The model not only provides shelter but also restores a sense of belonging and opportunity for long-term community growth.
