OUR FOUNDATION

The Abod Shelters Foundation is a registered 501(c)3 organization and is dedicated to providing affordable housing wherever it is needed around the world and will use the funds collected by gifts and donations to advance this purpose.

Our foundation is purpose driven, focused on long term social impact. We are dedicated to envisioning and designing quality, low cost housing solutions in lifestyle communities. We work with Strategic Partners to raise the standard of living for families to enhance overall well being. Together stronger, than apart.

BSB Design is the leading residential and commercial architecture and land planning firm in the US and Worldwide. Reflecting on the firm’s good fortune while traveling to Africa several years ago, Doug Sharp, Chairman, was moved to take action as a result of witnessing the living conditions of women, children and families in informal shack settlements.

  • We believe in the potential of human spirit; Personal space is important to well being.
  • We believe that everyone is deserving of an affordable, quality home that lasts.
