Review for El Porvenir, Broomfield, CO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I spent a week on a Brigade helping a small village build a lavandero, near the well that El Porvenir helped them to build. It was a life changing experience for me. I had traveled in under-developed countries before, but never had been able to personally get to know the people and see how they live in their homes. The need is so great there, the people so wonderful, and El Porvenir does an outstanding job of working volunteers. Though originally I had thought the Brigade was expensive for participant, I came home knowing it was some of the best spent money in my life.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the way it has improved the health and quality of life for rurual citizens of Nicaragua - the health of all, and the quality of life especially for the women and children.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

can't think of a thing, other than to receive more donations, in order to help more Nicaraguans!
