SUMMARY:Wheels for the World® El Salvador (San Salvador)
DESCRIPTION:Wheels for the World® provides life-changing mobility and the hope of the Gospel to people living with disabilities worldwide. Join a Wheels for the World outreach to El Salvador! Each volunteer plays an essential role during a Wheels for the World outreach. Serve with us in a seating therapist\, mechanic\, photographer\, seamstress\, or support role. Every team member will directly impact the lives of people living with disability. \nWhat to know about El SalvadorWith an area slightly smaller than the state of Massachusetts\, El Salvador is the smallest\, most densely populated country in Central America. While ministry for people living with disability grows\, the country’s legislation still remains limiting for people living with disabilities. In a land whose name translates to “The Savior\,” you will have opportunities to share the love and message of our true Savior\, Jesus Christ\, with those navigating disability. Apply today to provide wheelchairs and the Gospel message to people in need. You will also work closely with Salvadoran therapists and mechanics who are striving to meet the overwhelming need for mobility and accessibility throughout the country year-round.Cost and Safety Protocols\nThe cost for this outreach is all-inclusive and covers round-trip economy airfare from any city within the continental United States\, visas (if required)\, in-country transportation\, shared accommodations (double occupancy) while in-country\, meals while in-country\, and a cultural experience. However\, any pre-outreach vaccination requirements are the responsibility of each individual traveler. Outreach costs may vary for applicants traveling from outside the 48 contiguous United States. Joni and Friends will adhere to country protocols related to health and safety requirements.
