“Ywam global target networks primary exempt purpose and service accomplishment is to build homes for the needy in mexico. Each year our goal is to build 2-4 homes. The number of homes we build depends upon the number of volunteer participants going on the outreach. We generally have between 25-75 volunteers annually. It takes 22-25 volunteers to build a home over the two days. Each home costs around $11,000 to build. Volunteers going on the outreach raise their own funds towards the home costs and group fee lodging costs. Secondly, our purpose and service accomplishment is to equip volunteers for ministry. Prior to the outreach, we establish and conduct training classes geared towards first time mission outreach. We teach on the history of missions and mercy ministries both locally and globally. Training consists of 1-2 three hour instruction classes per week over a 3-4 week time period taught by missionaries and ywam staff members. Thirdly, once on the mission field, our purpose and service accomplishment in addition to building homes for 2 days, is to perform 1-2 days of various local mercy ministry outreaches. We generally visit orphanages or churches etc. To do painting, pulling weeds, cleaning, cooking meals, playing games with the children, coloring, cutting hair, playing soccer, doing playground activities and just spending social time with the children. The number of children served can range between 30-150 depending on the location we visit. The general ages of the children are from 5-16 years old. We also distribute various toys and clothing items that were purchased or donated and brought with us for distribution. We generally distribute between 2-3 suitcases of donated items.”
