Some options for those looking to take a volunteer vacation include:
Build Homes in La Esperanza, Honduras, 1 week, $800 in January
The native Lenca people of the Western Highlands often live in poverty-stricken conditions, sometimes with three families under one roof. Volunteers are desperately needed to help provide better homes for people who really need them as well as helping the communities build homes of their own. On this building project volunteers will work alongside local families to provide more stable and comfortable living conditions.
