Esperanza International Inc

Our Mission: We partner with communities to support families building their dream of a home with volunteers and above all, mutual trust.

Colaboramos con comunidades para apoyar a las familias en la autoconstrucción de su sueño de un hogar con voluntarios y sobre todo, confianza mutua.

Our Vision: 

We envision a world in which communities across borders work in solidarity toward a common dream of sustainable, dignified housing for all people.

We believe everyone deserves safe and dignified housing. We hope that every individual who participates in our program will be transformed into a person of love, compassion and respect for all other peoples and cultures, and will intentionally act upon that transformation.

How We Do It:

With support of Esperanza, families in Tijuana form savings funds communities to save for their future dignified home. Then when they're ready, they participate alongside experienced technicians and volunteers through sweat equity on their own home and their neighbor's homes as well. 

For Volunteers:

We offer service-learning immersion trips where volunteers help strengthen cross-border relationships and community while building homes. Together with our Mexican partners,  volunteers also have the opportunity to authentically engage in the unique border culture of Tijuana, Mexico, through the eyes of its own residents.
