dbo:abstract
  • The Make It Right Foundation is a non-profit foundation founded by American actor Brad Pitt in 2007. The foundation was established to aid in the environmentally friendly rebuilding of houses in New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward after Hurricane Katrina. The organization also built structures in Newark, New Jersey, and Kansas City, Missouri. In 2018, Lower Ninth Ward residents filed suit against Make It Right, alleging that the nonprofit built and sold houses with "defective" materials that caused electrical and plumbing malfunctions, insufficient ventilation, and structural issues. As of early 2022, reports stated that only 6 of the original 109 homes built remained in "reasonably good shape," with many rendered uninhabitable, plagued by construction errors and mold issues.
