There are countless community members who help out with each build in Las Charcas, but we wanted to highlight a few of the regulars with a series of blog posts.  We hope their unwavering devotion to their community will inspire you to help out in your own community, whether globally or locally.

Christian is the son of Monaro and Marlene Javier de la Rosa who received the very first Cambiando Vidas house that was built in 2007.

He, along with his younger brother, Alex, and his sister Natalie, have been regular helpers at all of the Cambiando Vidas builds in the Las Charcas community.  He and his brother will often leave for part of the day to attend school but will return, eager to help and work hard to finish each house.

Many recipients of Cambiando Vidas homes have continued to give their time and sweat equity to builds and help make the project one of community involvement.
