El Porvenir: Volunteer and Work Trips

El Porvenir invites volunteers to travel to Nicaragua and make their vacation really meaningful by sharing the life and work of a Nicaraguan village. El Porvenir offers groups of 10-15 people the opportunity to work side-by-side with villagers on one of their water, sanitation, or reforestation projects. If volunteers can donate some of their time and energy, El Porvenir would love to put their skills to good use. The projects are one or two weeks in length and the group is accompanied at all times by a bilingual El Porvenir staff member. Neither Spanish nor construction skills are required, though both are useful and welcome.
