The Hug is Forward staff makes sure accommodations, transportation and meals are safe and comfortable!

You will also be able to interact with members of the community, and there may even be an impromptu soccer game! There will also be dedicated time to spend visiting other sites around the country including seeing the bustling streets of Antigua!

If you’ve ever wanted to be able to give back or take a trip to another country with a mission to serve make 2022 the year to do it!!

We hope to see you in Guatemala this Thanksgiving!

Fundraising for bottle schools

You might also like to fundraise for Hug It Forward bottle schools. Fundraising for bottle schools is optional – it is not a requirement of participating in a bottle school trip.

If you choose to fundraise, we suggest a $250 fundraising goal, but some people choose to do more or less than this. It’s really up to you – how much you think your friends and families can give, how creative you can be, and how much time you’re prepared to put into it.

See more information about fundraising.
