Un Techo para Don Antonio || a Ceiling for Mr Antonio

On Jan 28th and 29th I went with Un techo para El Salvador to one of the campings. We were to San Julian to fight poverty.
So here is the story and pictures of the life changing experience weekend I had:

We went to San Julian this weekend, and we found them Campamento Enero 2006_0180 They inspired us...
to build a house this weekend, they wanted us to make a change in their lives.

I was the only gril in the team so my teammates were placing the wall's structures...
Campamento Enero 2006_0182 I was just holding it... Campamento Enero 2006_0185(which is kinda boring) Then they were screwing the wall, IMG_0203 but I was screwing the roof!!! Campamento Enero 2006_0197b (which is way more fun). They IMG_0200 were really happy, when it started looking like a houseCampamento Enero 2006_0202.
We
IMG_0208 were soo tired when we finished... but he Campamento Enero 2006_0206 and his family wont have to worry if it rains or if it's cold outside ... and that's worth the effort!!

This weekend, 72 volunteers believed this was posible. 12 Houses were built. 12 dreams came true, 12 more families have a new hope.
But we are far from the end. We need more volunteers, we need more money and we need more people who believe that it is posible to fight poverty!
