Impact Trip
Our Impact Trip is all-inclusive and perfect for your group of 15 adults or more. We provide the tents at our secure campground, all the building materials and tools, a pre-laid concrete slab, and water and authentic Mexican meals for 3 work days. An expert from Amor will also be with you on site to guide the building process.
When you join us on a trip, you’re not only partnering with Amor, but also with the local church and community. An Impact trip creates an average of 14 jobs for the local community – it creates jobs for the cooks in La Cocina, for the local workers that pour your concrete slab, and even for those that set up your tents at our campground.

What to Expect on an Amor Trip
At the Worksite
- An expert from Amor will be with you on site to guide the building process.
- Itās easy to think that the house is the most important part of the trip, but we are really here to love and serve people. Take time to talk to the family (even if you donāt know Spanish!), play with kids, or invite people to join in the work!
- Discover that you can make a big impact in a few days!
At Camp
- La Cocina, our catering service run by locals, can provide your group with meals for the weekend. They cook their own recipes and take care of meals, snacks, coffee, water, and Gatorade.
- Camp caretakers watch the people and things at camp 24/7. Amor staff members will be with the group both at camp and at the worksite.
- The experience at camp is very similar to how the families live – pit toilets (a port-a-potty over a hole in the ground) and bucket and/or solar showers.
- Each night, your group has time to share about the day around your campfire and even hear from leaders in the community.
