OT----> Great Opportunity

I am helping organize a team to go to El Salvador to build a house with Habitat for Humanity. Let me know if you are interested.

You do realize El Salvador is not exactly safe dont you? There are plenty of homes in America that need built also.

I do realize what it is like as I have been there several times. I also help build home with Habitat in Des Moines. 1 billion people in the world need a decent home.

That's what Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is for. And do you remember that Extreme Makeover used to be a show about giving woman boobs, tummy tucks and nose jobs? Funny how it's changed.

Plenty of worse places than El Salvador, relatively stable government, growing economy.

I would have jumped all over this if I was still in college. I just never heard of opps like this until I was responsible for holding down a job and kids n such. Excellent way to give back and to provide hurting people a chance to make better.

I agree! I get so jealous when I see college students in El Salvador or Honduras doing projects like these!
