  Buildher was founded in 2018 as a subsidiary of Orkidstudio Charity, a registered Scottish Charity, to work towards the prevention or relief of poverty and to promote the advancement of health and education, especially for the benefit of young and disadvantaged people, as well as the welfare and development of communities in distress or otherwise in need of relief, by exploring and developing the link between architecture, construction and humanitarian aid. Orkidstudio Charity was founded in 2010 and since 2013 has empowered 1,500 women through construction projects. The women typically join as unskilled laborers and are trained on site, using an ‘earn and learn’ model. With newly marketable skills, a stronger sense of self-worth, increased incomes and economic independence, these women transform their lives, and gain the respect of their male counterparts.
