My name is Tulio Molina, I was born in Acatenango, Chimaltenango, Guatemala on April 12, 1987 in a beautiful family where my parents were teachers. I grew up attending church as a child, participating in all possible ministries that had to do with it, but my desire was always to serve outside of it. I knew that I wanted to be an architect when I grew up so I always focused on achieving my goal which I have achieved working since 2015 designing houses and making construction plans.
The idea of founding an organization dedicated to building affordable housing was born after Fuego volcano erupted in Guatemala in june 2018. In the aftermath of the disaster, thousands of individuals had to start over. This catastrophe caused us to realize that there are people living in extreme poverty around us. I was inspired to establish Birdhouse Foundation after witnessing the events of the Fuego volcano eruption from abroad in the US, realizing just how hard it is for families below the middles class to afford the costs of building a decent home.
From the first day that we met with families in need of a decent home, we realized just how much we could do and how much was left to be done. Every family in Guatemala deserves a home in excellent condition, but, when we visited some smaller communities, we realized that not everyone enjoys this basic right.
In December 2019 we built the first house thanks to the alliance we achieved with three institutions that have been working for some time in Guatemala. Sin Limites, Oneway Community, Celebration Church and Praising Jesus Feeding Ministry. Since that day we have not stopped working and now we have 22 houses built in different parts of Guatemala.
