Goal


Hello dog lovers!
Perros Libres is a dog rescue and sanctuary in Tzununa, Guatemala. Our project has started from literally the ground-up, having to build everything from scratch. We've operated here for over 2 years, under extremely harsh and rustic conditions. Muddy floors, a single outdoor toilet, no shower besides a waterfall (the one we built broke). It's been a struggle to say the least!
Doggies in the unfinished houseThe human living situation needs great improving. This fundraiser will focus on creating an outhouse so we have comfortable and quality bathroom conditions! 
There are 3 phases:
1. Digging Hole, Septic Tank
2. Build Bathroom (septic tank, toilet, bath, shower)

3. Install Toilet + water


There are so many dog lovers eager to volunteer with our dogs, and some local residents who have been housing them, but we need to finish our own housing to make this project space live-able for the long term. We have already prepared our materials list, and we have eager workers lined up to start up right now! 
Planning where the Septic tank will go



We are and will continue to care for animals with proper medical care during construction, prepare future spay and neuter clinics for the town, and preparing all our dogs for adoption by their forever families.


Help us create the living quarters for all the volunteers that is live-able, comfortable, and sanitary! The Dog Sanctuary needs your help to evolve into the wonderful animal sanctuary paradise it dreams to be. 

Every donation is a blessing and we are so grateful for your contribution! 

Your donation will go a long way towards making this a living space that is inviting, clean, and will make a more positive life for every person (and dog) that comes through our doors! 


UPDATE: 

Phase 1: completed! 


It has taken a long time, but we have finished the first phase of the bathroom construction! 


We have dug the whole for the septic system, which is in the style of "Canadian Compost", using a rock-filtration system for the waste to return to the earth at a level without smell. Take a look at a picture: 

Here is the hole itself: 



Andres & Crew finish the hole! 


We are now in "Phase 2", and need to build the structure! There is a LOT still to do with Cement, metal, piping, and etc.: can you help us get to the next phase of the project? We would REALLY appreciate it! 


It has been a long time coming but we're exciting for this next phase. It will require building walls, putting in a floor, adding pipes to the water system, and all the surrounding space for the toilet. Let's build a bathroom, and help us get clean quick, by donating today!
