Would You Like to Volunteer?
CLICK HERE to fill out a simple Volunteer Questionnaire Form so that we can track the skills and availability of potential volunteers. We are partnering with several organizations who will eventually need thousands of volunteers. BWB will be matching up their needs with the amazing people from our community and beyond.
Click Here to read the CDC's most recent guidelines for shots, medications, and supplies you need if you are traveling to Haiti. This is extremely serious. From our experience doing relief work in Peru, we can tell you that almost everyone who travels to Haiti will get sick and you must be prepared to take care of yourself. It can take up to a month to get the series of shots you need, so if you are considering going to Haiti start the process now.
