New Mexico Mortgage Finance Authority (MFA) has approved their Housing Innovation award made through the New Mexico Housing Trust Fund to ECOHAB for $450,000 to build four passive solar homes in El Prado, NM to be sold at or below 150% Area Median Income (AMI).

THE LUZZATTO COMPANY

It is also an opportunity to display information in office window for locals and tourists explaining who we are and what we do so folks walking by can learn more.

LONG WAY HOME
“We work hand-in-hand with local communities to create educational infrastructure using recycled materials, particularly used tires, that would otherwise pollute the environment. Our approach combines environmental stewardship with educational excellence, creating spaces where learning thrives and communities flourish. Every project we undertake is guided by the principle that education is a fundamental right, and that sustainable practices can create lasting positive change for both people and the planet.”
ECOHAB has partnered with Long Way Home to build a classroom in Aguas Calientes, Guatemala (April 2024) and in Patzaj, Guatemala (October 2025) to address severe shortages of educational infrastructure in the villages outside of San Juan Comalapa.
