An Opportunity in El Salvador

Howdy Friends & Neighbors,

I, Greg Gall, hope to travel with my son and two grandsons on a Shelter Helps team this November to the San Vicente area of El Salvador. Our team hopes to raise enough funds to provide the materials for 20 homes and a hopeful future to 20 families in El Salvador.

San Vicente, where our team is to be based, has received approximately 2 feet of rain in the last 2 weeks, displacing many in the affected areas. A reminder of the importance of Shelter Helps’ work there.

Since 2001, Shelter Helps has been constructing homes and training Salvadorans with the skills to construct homes for themselves. Yet having the skills without the funds to purchase the needed materials still leaves thousands without the means to provide a permanent dry home to care for their families.

Here is a URL to see what $3800 can do for a family home in El Salvador:

Something all of us may do is pray for those needing Shelter around the globe. I would count it an honour to be your ambassador of prayers and encouragement this November with the Shelter Helps team to El Salvador.

If you would like to encourage these families with a financial gift towards a new home and hope filled future, go to the Shelter Helps donation portal below:

May you be encouraged as they will be.
