TCU Spring Break in Mexico - 1

Several TCU students spent their spring break volunteering for "Mi Casa Diferente", Mexico's version of Habitat for Humanity.

The trip to Guanajuato, Mexico, was part of TCU's Alternative Spring Break (ASB) program, and was the first ASB group to work outside the U.S.

The students mixed dirt, manure and water alongside residents of Mesa Cuato -- a village community -- to create a massive mud bowl. The gooey mixture was then poured into wooden molds to make bricks. They used the bricks to rebuild a kitchen area and prepare a foundation for one 10-member household.
