Sign up for our volunteer vacations in Puerto Rico.

It is so close and the need is so great! Join us on our first program in a United States territory in a time of great need. As the world knows, this beautiful archipelago among the Greater Antilles was struck hard by Category 5 hurricane Maria in 2017, the worst natural disaster in its recorded history. Puerto Rico needs you. 

In your free time, experience the natural beauty that has inspired people to vacation here through the ages: colonial architecture; beautiful beaches; tropical climate (annual average of 80 degrees); and warm, friendly people.

The placement is in Yauco, about 80 miles from San Juan. Currently, there is no issue with access to gas and roads necessary to carry out our work. In this area, about 1300 houses need their roof fully or partially repaired. No special skills or languages are necessary though we recommend that volunteers are capable of working in a tropical climate.

How many roofs are completed per project week depends on how many volunteers are registered, how fast they work, any weather conditions that arise, and any changes in the availability of materials.
