The opportunity to serve & grow is right in front of you!
Each year over spring break we travel to the Dominican Republic for a week of working with and for others. We learn a lot. We work a lot. We laugh a lot. This is an amazing opportunity, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for all who attend. Join us as we do construction work, teach English to kids in a classroom setting, and head out to small villages to help with a medical team. This is a unique trip each year and not only do we grow together as a community, but we also change lives of those we encounter, finding ourselves changed in the process.

This amount includes airfare, lodging, food, and transportation while in the DR. The only other money you’ll need to have is some spending money for souvenirs and money for food in the airports on the way to and from the DR. As with all of our service trips, scholarships are available. We don’t want cost to inhibit you if you’d like to serve with us!
*Last date to cancel and receive full refund (may be refunded after December 1 if another student takes vacated spot on trip).
What if I need to cancel?
We know things come up and sometimes we have to adjust our plans. As long as you cancel by December 1, 2023, you will receive a reimbursement of the full amount. After December 1, we can only offer reimbursements if another student is able to fill your student’s vacated spot on the trip. Thank you for understanding!
Do I need a passport?
Yes! If you don’t already have one at the time of registration, apply for one as soon as possible so it will arrive in time (sometimes passports can take a while to arrive!). If you do have one, ensure that it expires no later than six months from our last day of travel. If not, you’ll need to apply for another one right away. Sometimes airport customs won’t let you fly if your passport expires within six months of your travel dates. After you get your passport, we will need a clear, legible, well-lit color photocopy or photo of the first page (the page with your name and photo on it).
Volunteer as a chaperone
We could never make this trip happen each year without awesome adult chaperones!
