Amor Founder, Gayla Congdon, created Women of Strength for women from all around the world to come together and build a home alongside a family in South Africa. Not only is a complete home built, but culture is shared through cooking, beading, and dancing. The history of Apartheid in South Africa is taught by those who experienced it. Ultimately, we show that when women come together and serve together, everyone is stronger.
Amor is requiring the participants of this trip to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 plus, if applicable, be up to date with their most recent booster. In addition to the immunization, proof of a negative COVID-19 test result is required within 3 days of travel. Five days before your arrival to South Africa, you will also need to keep a Health Log.
