Important Trip Info
Learn more about the South Africa trip experience:
South Africa is a fascinating and beautiful country, and Convoy of Hope is privileged to partner with Blessman International to serve people through our Children’s Feeding program, helping women and girls, and more. We are thankful for the broad reach and depth of our work together and for the opportunities for Field Teams to serve as part of this partnership
There are numerous ways that Field Teams can help increase capacity and serve with local people. Through various projects that all offer opportunities to interact with children, teams can make huge contributions to sustainability strategies in vulnerable communities by:
- Planting or harvesting at a ministry farm.
- Building latrines, chicken coops, and greenhouses.
- Helping with a shoe or eyeglass distribution.
- Distributing menstrual health kits.*
South Africans are extremely friendly, so teams will interact with children and their leaders throughout their time on the field. There is also the potential of visiting a safari and experiencing a fascinating view of the country.
*Opportunity for women team members only.
Teams come alongside local church leaders to tackle construction projects, clean-up work, and other projects, with opportunities to interact with children. We’ll work with local leaders to determine the specific projects your team will take part in and will communicate that to you 60 days prior to your trip.
