PARENT BUILDERS​

A LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCE

WHY BE A PARENT BUILDER?

Over the years we have seen these trips become an opportunity for parents to have an incredible experience with their child. You become a mentor, friend, confidant, support system to the most amazing youth. It truly is a once in a lifetime opportunity to bond with your Builder and others in a rare way: side by side, working, sweating, laughing, and impacting the lives of the people you serve.  You will be the much-needed support for your Trip Leaders while experiencing your very own miracles. And hey, a vacation that you don’t have to plan is an added benefit!

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?

Parents of registered Youth Builders are able to sign up as a Parent Builder, but we’ve seen the powerful experience shared between a grandparent and their grandchild and even aunts and uncles with their nieces and nephews so the opportunity is also available to more than parents (35 age minimum).
