Guatemalan Humanitarian Tours

Overview

Building Bridges, Not Walls. To create a win/win experience for the participants we take and the people we get to serve.

Mission

We show volunteers the reality of life in a developing country and offer love, and hope to the Guatemalans we serve.

History

I've been leading humanitarian trips to do service work, explore and have a blast for the last 7 years.

Program

Primary recipient - school aged children living in poverty. Right now we are offering them gifts to relieve financial stress and bring smiles. Such as school supplies, backpacks and toys. When we get larger donations we will begin a free breakfast and free lunch program for the children who are not getting those meals and paying tuition for students who can't.

Impact

We have donated thousands of pounds of books, backpacks, food, toys, hair bows, hugs, tons of love. We have helped install wood burning stoves and left homes with a water filter, stove, cooking supplies and money for food.

Goals this year

To create 4 teams of 10 to do good work and have a blast!
