“After an incredible two weeks, HOPE’S IN was able to bring two teams to Guatemala City to work alongside families and Potters House to complete our 50th home. We estimate that, as an organization, we have provided dignified, sturdy housing for 300 people!
Thank you to everyone who has generously supported our mission to empower families living in Guatemala and help develop the next generation of humanitarian leaders.
The Barrington Community Honored
The 50th home was dedicated in honor of the Barrington Community. We couldn’t have done it without the help of our hometown! We are so grateful for the generosity the community has shared with us over the past ten years. HOPE’S IN is so excited to continue making an impact in Guatemala.
Over 500 volunteers have participated in our Service Learning Exchange to Guatemala to help build the homes, run medical clinics, and train local health professionals. We encourage all our volunteers to continue sharpening their humanitarian leadership by getting involved with service in their hometowns. We hope TEAM HOPE can continue to give back to the community that has given us so much. Barrington, thank you!”
