    Descripción

    We are a non profit organization that serves impoverished children and families in Guatemala. We build homes for the homeless, feed the hungry, teach self sustainability and provide education pathways for children and youth.

    Looking for house and dog sitters in the month of SEPTEMBER! Please reach out if you are specifically interested in doing that!

    We are located in a small village about 1.5 hr south of Antigua Guatemala and 30 min north of Monterrico Guatemala. *FYI if you are traveling from Antigua Guatemala to El Tunco El Salvador we are right in the middle along CA-2.*

    We recently moved from town to a 5-acre rural property with 60 mango trees. Mango season runs from February to June (depending the year), so we need help with harvesting and preparing the mangoes. During the heavy rainy season (July-October) we need help in maintaining and pruning the mango trees. Alongside that, we have various construction, yard cleanup and self-sustainability projects, including a community garden and a chicken coop that we need maintenance and help taking care of.

    We also sponsor children and provide English lessons for them. The English lesson for our sponsor children are on Fridays (October - July). Once a week we do community outreaches to support the locals. Do you like and know how to play FIFA? We do a FIFA tournament once a week with the local youth. Perfect for you to be involved!

    Our staff are local Guatemalans while I myself am from the States and my wife is from Switzerland. We are a Christian faith- based project. However, we have had volunteers from over 17 countries and received individuals from all paths of life! Everyone is welcome here! Join the team!

    We offer a safe environment away from tourism and peaceful in a rural area. Being in an area where not many people speak English, you will have to use Spanish when going shopping or speaking with locals.
