Bahamas GTC Volunteer Trip Recap

Jul 20, 2021

Although our main focus is to provide immediate needs assessment and relief  following a disaster, our team at Sol Relief has evolved into long-term recovery and rebuilding efforts to support the Bahamian community and help build resilience post Hurricane Dorian.  Working with a dedicated team of locals, non-profit partners, and generous donors, we have been able to help with the repair and construction of 167 homes and build 4 homes from the ground up mainly in the areas of Marsh Harbor and Green Turtle Cay.  Just recently, April 25-May 8, the Sol Relief team and a group of exceptional New Smyrna Beach and St. Pete volunteers completed a 2-week rebuilding trip where we completed punch list items and built and painted hurricane shutters for the 4 homes that we constructed from the ground up with our team of local contractors.  This was completed just in time for the start of the 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season.  Being able to serve these communities while helping them rebuild has been an immense joy and we are honored and humbled to be a part of it all.
