Raise the Roof in San Marcos!

on

Several needs took shape in a small project! We can put some young men to work (who will also benefit from the education of assisting the lead carpenter) to replace a roof for a family in need. My friend Alex has many building projects in town and is passionate about involving locals in their own rework--even if it is donated. He has all the connections to make this happen! I am reaching out to friends for the financial side: money for locally-sourced building supplies and hired work.

If you want to help me make a difference while I'm in Guatemala, here are a few ways to contribute financially--just people coming together to do some good!
