The\u00a0<\/span>Warm Homes Project<\/span><\/b>\u00a0focuses on improving living conditions for families in isolated high-altitude communities in the Andes Mountains (4,000\u20135,000m\u00a0above sea level).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Volunteers will help with the construction and thermal reconditioning of homes:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

  • Proper ventilation and heating improvements<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul>
    • Improved stoves<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul>
      • Bathrooms with showers<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

        These remote communities often have limited infrastructure, no electricity, cold temperatures, and no warm water access<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

        \u00a0<\/span>No construction experience is\u00a0required! Participants simply need a willingness to learn, serve, work as a team, and of course have a great attitude!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
