Our building projects are dictated by community need. As a result, you may find yourself renovating a school, building a home or constructing a community centre. No matter which phase of a project your team joins, you can be certain that your contribution will be long-lived and highly appreciated. No experience is necessary as you will be working alongside locals who have plenty of experience in dealing with local materials. It is the lack of funding and manpower that prevents the development of new buildings. By joining a building project, you will bring the manpower and finances needed to fund the construction. Projects are selected by community need. This therefore creates a variety of different projects. Education and sanitation are usually at the top of the list, but we are also very keen for volunteers to work on recreational projects, such as pitch flattening and community centres. These often provide a great focal point for the community. Visit our website at WWW.GAPSPORTS.COM Click on Enquire now for more information, without commitment.
