About Program
Many of the volunteer abroad programs VAGT offers are in countries that have gone through long, struggling histories. People continue living in extreme poverty without access to basic necessities. Therefore, developing communities do not have access to a decent place they can call home, a hospital they can go to when sick, or a school that will help them get better prepared for their future. We shine a different light on hands-on, practical, hard work with our rewarding construction efforts in Guatemala, Nepal and Kenya.
You don't need any special construction skills, although being able to pound nails is a plus. You'll be working side by side with volunteer team members and the partner family; partners contribute hours of "sweat equity" toward their new home. In many cases, the entire community also pitches in. Join our Building and Renovation programs, you will be helping people that lack resources to build a house, a school, or a hospital and improve quality of life.
