The Sun Sets on Summer School Expeditions Published: 23 Jul 2018

What a summer it has been. 

Over the course of five weeks, 97 pupils and teachers from six Scottish schools took part in Vine Trust volunteer expeditions to Tanzania & Peru.

Working alongside local builders, the teams in Tanzania constructed eight family homes around Moshi while the team in Peru team built a large brick driveway for New Hope Children's Home in Arequipa. A lot of hard work is packed into our two week expeditions, but the tangible results of the effort put in during this short time will last for many years to come. 

A massive thank you to our volunteers for an incredible five weeks of hard work, great fun and determination to make significant change to communities in Tanzania & Peru.

Another asante sana and gracias to our fantastic in-country partners and coordinators for ensuring our volunteers had the best experience possible.
