In the summer of 2019 Bath Youth for Christ are flying out to Tijuana, Mexico to help build a hose for a family. This project will help change lives. The project was set up by Amor. Amor is an American organisation set up to help families in poverty.

The Mexican families that are helped by Amor are hardworking and earn £25-£30 a week. The community we will work in could be only a few years old, this is due to an influx of people looking for work. Most families are unable to save money for their own house and there is no government assisted program to help the poor. The local government in Mexico is already overburdened and cannot afford adequate facilities and resources. The current houses the families are living in are shacks made up of scrap materials, such as wood, plastic and anything else they can find. The new houses will be built on a concrete surface and will be waterproof.

Thank you for helping change lives.
