Make a difference in the lives of local families in Papua New Guinea, a culturally diverse country with a whopping over 800 different languages spoken! One of the world’s most rural countries, less than one fourth of its population reside in urban areas. It is believed some local groups still have zero contact with other communities.
Become a Global Builder in Papua New Guinea and spend 1 to 2 weeks immersing yourself in the country’s exotic and tropical environment while becoming part of a friendly community! Experience a new culture as you work side by side with local families to help them achieve their dream of owning a safe, decent, and affordable home.
In addition to providing safe housing, our program provides locals with jobs while supporting the local economy and creating a life-changing experience for all involved. If you have a heart for combining service, travel and new experiences, this trip is for you!

Mission Statement
The Fuller Center for Housing, faith-driven and Christ-centered, promotes collaborative and innovative partnerships with individuals and organizations in an unrelenting quest to provide adequate shelter for all people in need worldwide.
Description
The Fuller Center creates partnerships within communities that bring together churches, schools, businesses and civic organizations to build decent, affordable homes in partnership with people who are unable to secure adequate housing by conventional means. The Fuller Center works in collaboration with our covenant partners, other service-oriented organizations and countless volunteers to build their own homes, which are then sold to them on terms they can afford, based on the Biblical idea of no-profit, no-interest loans.
Through our Global Builders program, we have many opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds to get involved with our work. We currently send teams to 10 different countries to spend 1-2 weeks working on homes and getting to know the local culture. No construction skill are necessary. Visit our website to learn more about all our opportunities.
