In February 2012, Infinity Volunteers will travel to a small village in Guatemala. While there, we will install a rainwater collection, filtration, and storage system for this community that is currently without running water. We look forward to sharing our experiences with you.

A rewarding day at the worksite
It was a very rewarding day. We continued to mix cement and construct the water tower. It was very warm....we were sure to wear lots of sunscreen and drink plenty of water.
Hey Nina, its your brother. Its good to FINALLY see you actually DOING SOME HARD WORK! LOL. Just kidding. Hope you're having fun... See you in four days.
You guys are really working hard. It looks hot so take care. Good job Molly! After all this hard work cleaning your room should be a breeze. Love ya, Mom
BEAMING with pride for all of you!! These pics put a smile on my face--can't imagine how the guatemalans feel. Just curious though....are any of you available for some landscaping & light construction projects during April vacation?? With all this experience my yard would look awesome...LOL. Oh & Dylan--we are going with Mrs. Gorton's idea--you will have your own shovel upon your return--maybe you & Sam could go into business ;) Love you- Mom
Water tower looks like its coming along well. Can't wait to see the finished product. Haven't seen any building permit posted though. Building without a permit? Sam your grandfathers would be so proud. Keep up the good work guys.
It looks like everything is moving along quickly, and it's great to see everyone involved. Caroline, I hope you are taking lots of photos--I'm sure they'll be amazing. XO
The smiles shown on the faces of all the women and children are so heartwarming. You can be sure they will never forget you and the same you will never forget them. Dylan, I've been thinking while scrolling down to view the pictures, wonder what work we can find for you to do so you won't get rusty using the shovel. Enjoy the rest of your time and cherish every minute. What did you say you wanted to eat when you come home??, ps red,black,???what color shovel should I buy???? We are all anxious to hear about your time/work. Good time for a party and you can tell everyone at once. Hello to Nina. Love you lots, Auntie Nona
