The Experience

Home is where the heart is. What better gift than to provide a family in need than somewhere to call home. You’ll be working side-by-side with local staffs to construct a new house from scratch. Expect to get your hands dirty hammering nails, sawing wood, etc, & entertaining local rural community kids! Once the house is finished, get involved with an outreach project at a grassroots level to provide much needed water wells, free education etc.
