Involvement today makes
a difference forever.
Vision Teams are the backbone of Common Hope’s support system. These groups of volunteers are changing the lives of Guatemalans, as well as their own, eight days at a time.
An experience as unique as the team itself, your Vision Team experience will combine elements of service and education to give you a true cultural exchange. Interact with the students and families we serve and learn from our staff that makes the work happen every day.
What is a Vision Team?
A Vision Team allows you to experience the people, culture, and beauty of Guatemala first-hand. This is a completely immersive experience. Vision Teams can be formed by anyone. We welcome teams of friends and family members, workplace teams, corporate teams, school and civic groups and faith communities. We offer different team experiences to fit your needs.
