Book now to reserve your spot on Michelle and Eric Epp’s bottle school trip: November 22-28, 2021. ***Booking options below***

Friends and family! Eric and Michelle Epp here this year we have teamed up with Serve the World Today to lead a voluntour trip to Guatemala! What’s a voluntour you ask? It’s a wonderful mash-up of exploring a new place and also volunteering some of your time to serve within a local community. We have been on two separate trips to Guatemala and absolutely loved our time there and this year we want you to join in on the fun!

Your days will be spent working in the villages of Guatemala assisting the community in constructing a school! You will be working alongside members of the community throughout the whole process. Every detail of the trip has been taken care of; we will have transportation from the airport and the worksites, access to clean drinking water, some of the best food you will ever taste, and exceptional leadership from a team of people who have dedicated their lives to the service of others! The work being done within these communities is empowering its citizens and having a generational impact!

Join us Thanksgiving week 2021!

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.
