Goals achieved for joint house renovation 

We at Quest Adventures are thrilled to be offering domestic and international trips once again, following the BPS ban on student travel during the pandemic. This past spring 2023, Quest sponsored service trips to Puerto Rico for 3 outstanding school teams from Boston Arts Academy, Boston Green Academy and Brighton High. All of them volunteered with local Puerto Rican organizations to continue the effort to renovate and/or build homes as well as restore vegetation as a result of the damage caused by Hurricanes Maria and Fiona.

Boston Arts Academy

Boston Arts Academy

Partnering with the SBP disaster recovery organization for 6 hours a day around Santurce, the team split into two groups and worked on three different houses by doing demolition, tiling walls, painting, and other repairs. One of the days they also volunteered with a recycling group to clean the beach and surrounding campground area. We recycled over 20 bags of trash!

Boston Green Academy

Boston Green Academy

This team worked with Habitantes de la Montaña (Inhabitants of the Mountain) in Toro Negro, a small community of twenty-eight homes spanning the Toro Negro River watershed in the towns of Orocovis and Ciales. The students carried pick-axes, trowels up to a community farm and spent many hours, planting Spanish Elm tree saplings that will provide much needed shade and stability for the plantation to survive.

Brighton High

Brighton High School

Students spent their week working with the organization, Techos “Pa la Gente (Roofs for our People) in the town of Loiza. They assisted in building new roofs for those still in need following the hurricanes, as well as working with the residents to create a sustainable community garden. They also spent a day helping Techos to organize and run a community day, filling baskets with food, setting up racks of clothing, and bonding with community members.
