Frequently asked
Who can volunteer?
Anyone 8 and older in good health. No construction experience needed — our crew leaders teach everything on site. Minors need a guardian's signature.
What's not included in the $999?
Airfare to San Diego or Ensenada, travel insurance, and any souvenirs. We'll send a packing list and suggested flight arrivals after you register.
How physically demanding is it?
Moderate. You'll be lifting, hammering, and on your feet for much of the day, but tasks rotate and there are roles for every ability level.
Is my $999 tax-deductible?
Yes. Teaching Amor is a registered 501(c)(3), and the portion of your fee beyond direct trip costs is deductible. We'll send a receipt.
Can I bring a group?
Absolutely. Groups of 4+ get discounted pricing. Use the group inquiry form and we'll follow up with a custom quote.
