Proyecto Azteca is a non-profit construction company based in San Juan, TX, dedicated to building stable and vibrant communities by providing quality affordable housing for low and very low-income families. Founded in 1991, Proyecto Azteca works with residents in the Rio Grande Valley colonias, utilizing a self-help model that empowers families to become responsible homeowners through sweat equity and first-time homebuyer classes. With a mission rooted in creating a more equitable society, Proyecto Azteca addresses the housing crisis in Hidalgo County by constructing decent and affordable homes for rural residents. Their programs are tailored to family size and income, and while a traditional down payment is not required, families are required to actively participate in the construction process. Volunteers play a crucial role in helping elderly and disabled families meet their sweat equity requirements, making a real difference in the lives of those in need.Generated from the website
