We are a small team of people fortunate enough to have the time to step away from our lives in mainland America in order to help those in need here in Puerto Rico. We are no heroes; we are young people in transition and older people who wish they were young again (and pretty good at pretending!). Most of us speak at least enough Spanish to get ourselves in trouble and then hopefully back out of it.
Til is a master carpenter with a perfectionist's edge and punchy wit that most of the time covers up his soft side. Ben is a young carpenter with an old soul always willing to talk to anyone anywhere. Lisa is a creative problem-solver and organizer, passionate about helping others. Bill is the newest member; a retired school teacher ready to roll up his sleeves and join the crew.
We thrive together because we are willing to work hard with efficiency, we are humble enough to teach, learn, and laugh together, and we are all committed to helping people in real time as much as we can. We are here because we have found a way that we can make a difference, and we have the means to use our minds and bodies to do so.
