Work TripsEach year, El Porvenir offers one-week and two-week work trips to Nicaragua. Groups of 10-15 people work in a village assisting Nicaraguan families in the construction of water, sanitation, or reforestation projects. The group is accompanied at all times by a bilingual El Porvenir staff member. Neither Spanish nor construction skills are required, though both are useful and welcome. Work trips cost $800 to $1075 and the fee covers the following expenses:

El Porvenir invites you to experience the stunning natural beauty of Nicaragua and to see an astonishing array of birds and wildlife. On this trip you will visit natural reserves around volcanic crater lakes, in rivers, in the central mountains. Local experts, Nicaraguan and North American, will guide bird walks every day. In addition to many days of birding, the tour will include a visit to some El Porvenir sustainable development projects in rural areas, and a day in two distinct artisan centers of the country. The fee for all expenses including airport transfers, hotels, restaurants, in-country transportation, interpreters, and guides is $1200.
