CalEarth alum Owen Ingley took a workshop in 2009 and has been working to promote SuperAdobe in Puerto Rico for the last 8 years. His nonprofit, Plentitud PR, has completed the construction of 3 structures in Puerto Rico, and all of them successfully survived the devastating impact of Hurricane María one year ago. In February 2018 Plenitud PR was granted funding from the Hispanic Federation to teach workshops on Superadobe emergency shelters and build a demonstration house. The work was recently featured on the front page newspaper article in the local newspaper, and they are receiving a lot of interest from local government officials. Keep up the great work Owen!
