30 Seconds to Mars Fans & Habitat for Humanity = The House That The Echelon Built

30 Seconds to Mars and Hollywood for Habitat for Humanity united for a one-of-a-king build on June 30, 2008 for the A Brush With Kindness program. The band raised $10,000 by auctioning off 6 slots for fans to work on the build alongside the band members for a day.

In the same week, 30 Seconds to Mars' beautiful family of fans, the Echelon, were inspired and started their own project with "Hope Builders", a program of Habitat for Humanity in the UK, which raises funds to build homes internationally. "The House that the Echelon Built" raised enough money to build 2 homes before the band had even begun their build in Los Angeles on June 30, 2008. The House That Echelon Built is now working towards raising enough funds for their 4th house!

"It`s an international project- a little more proof that when people come together, good things can happen."






I am so proud to be a member of the giant, crazy, beautiful, dysfunctional Echelon family...the believers in 30 Seconds to Mars. -Briton [echelon] aka enslavedbyfaeries

"We are so proud of our friends and family around the world who have put together their own teams and volunteered. It's a wonderful and selfless gift and we are so thankful and moved by the generosity shown by all. It was a great day today with our family, friends and fans on the build site with the Jones family in Carson, but it was even more special knowing we were joined around the world in this event. We ended the build covered in dirt, sweat and smiles." -Jared Leto
