Activities

"What can we do when we visit?"

• Buy, prepare, and serve lunch or dinner for our kids and staff! 

• Paint, weed, or landscape around the property, if needed

• Play soccer, basketball, or hang out on the playground with some of our kids

• Read with our kids with Spanish books from our library

• Bring approved-in-advance crafts, games, and activities you can do with our kids

• Bring donations of these items with you (these are super-helpful for us!)

Work Projects

​

There are certain kinds of work that visitors CAN do and certain kinds of work visitors CANNOT do. For example, we have a full staff of Mexican and Americans. They do laundry, help kids get baths, iron clothes, take them to school, etc. We usually don't have visitors do the basic day-to-day caring of our kids because that's why we have staff. Visitors do the extras that we are either unable to do or unable to afford to do. 

• Buy paint and brushes and then paint one of our buildings, fences, or playground equipment

• Buy a dump truck of gravel and spread in our parking areas or driveway

• If skilled, help with some technical maintenance around the property, if needed

• Build a house in the local community for a needy family

• Other ideas as needed!
