Builders Without Borders
(BWB) is a Canadian not-for-profit company whose purpose is to provide Building Industry
consultants and volunteers for work with international Non Government Organizations (NGO's) to construct shelter, and teach building industry skills to those most in need and to provide this without prejudice regarding race, religion, gender or political affiliations.
Builders Without Borders
is an organization of Canadian building industry volunteers who are experienced in the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of shelter.
The consultants and volunteers include architects, engineers, planners, project managers, building trades, construction specialists, procurement individuals, and instructors in shelter related disciplines.
We believe the most effective way to provide development assistance, for those most in need, is to develop strategic relationships with Canadian and international non-government humanitarian organizations and to supply them with experienced construction industry volunteers.
Through our world wide network of building industry and professional groups in each country, we are able to draw upon their local construction industry knowledge and thereby quickly determine the costs, and available resources.
It is BWB's objective, in each project, to train individuals in income generating construction skills.
We are recruiting volunteers from across Canada through our head office in Vancouver.
