Be the change you wish to see in the world

-Gandhi

"From my experience, I gained an understanding of my responsibility to serve because I can, because I have been blessed to have the resources to turn away from my and my family's immediate needs and look  outward. I never expected to gain such a pressing understanding of my need to serve. I never expected to meet people who were so much "better" than I am, who had so much to teach me of compassion, of self sacrifice and of hope. I feel that I was literally healed by the people of El Salvador as they changed my perspective and expectations."

 

-Natalie Brown, El Salvador 2007

Construction Projects

 

HELP International engages in many construction projects each year. In El Salvador, we often partner with Habitat for Humanity to build homes for impoverished families. Another typical construction project is to build chicken coupes and pig pens. These structures provide families, schools, and orphanages with a sustainable form of income.

 

In 2008, a HELP International Uganda  participant studying construction management facilitated  a local workshop teaching school drop-outs how to be carpenters. He taught the manager of the workshop and the students how to draft their own designs, so that they were no longer reliant on buying them. This knowledge freed the workshop from a perpetual debt and gave the students a valuable skill that will bless their lives.
