IN FEBRUARY, INFINITY VOLUNTEERS WILL BE TRAVELING TO AN IMPOVERISHED REGION OF NINDIRI, NICARAGUA TO BUILD A 15 X 18 FOOT CONCRETE HOME!
The region of Nindiri is located between the capital city of Managua and the city of Masaya. The principal town of Nindiri was one of the first towns founded in Nicaragua and is home to an impressive four-hundred-year-old temple that is now a national monument. While Nindiri town has preserved much of its colonial flare, many of the surrounding rural communities lack even basic infrastructure. Many of the people there are farmers. More recently, many have become workers in the “Free Trade Zone” textile factories. Neither alternative provides more than a very limited income, and the communities have few options to improve their own housing, education, or healthcare
