Build a Home - Work Alongside Local Contractors
- Dominican Republic
About Program
While in the Dominican Republic, your team will have the opportunity to help construct a brand new home for a family over 10 days! For them, something as simple as rain can mean incredible damage to their shelter and a threat to their health, and the only security for their family may take the form of a tiny, rusted lock on a flimsy tin door. They are exposed to living conditions that are unacceptable and you will help to change that! You will see your life in an entirely new perspective and on the day you see the family in their new home, you will understand dignity, security, and peace of mind in a whole new way.
During your time with our team, we will also make sure you have plenty of opportunities to connect with people in the local village and make many new friends. We will set aside part of a day to connect with a local family and share stories as work together completing daily activities. You will also get to explore the beauty that is so prevalent in the Caribbean.
Absolutely! We have had individuals from all over the world work on a variety of community projects with us. Volunteer on your own or with friends and family alongside other volunteers, local contractors, and community members.
