Project Donation Donate
The team is asked to raise $3,000 for the project. This provides housing for one family. If more is raised, more homes can be built. 100% of these funds are used for these homes.
Outreach Focus
Sugar companies hire men to come in from Haiti and work the sugar cane fields. Over the years, entire Haitian families
have ended up living in the cane fields. Their houses are sticks and rubble, their food basic and meager. Some are able to rent small cubicles that are the size of a walk-in closet. The small spaces are hot and unsanitary, but are all the people can afford with their less-than-a-dollar-a-day incomes. Sharing Teams build homes that are still very basic, but offer an escape from hopelessness. Partnering with Maranatha and Crossroads ministries, teams work hard to build homes, feed the hungry, and share the gospel with entire villages. Villagers are interested for us to share how Jesus changed our lives. Teams show the Jesus Film and give testimonies.
Accommodations
We will stay at the Pier Giorgio Hotel which captures the beauty of nature and simple creativity of those who constructed it. The scenic overlook is breathtaking! See Accomodations.
