Review

I had studied abroad, been on many trips overseas, and gone on summer study abroad trips - but none of them compared to this trip. I saw the world from a whole new prospective. We were on a mission trip to provide healthcare to under privileged communities. Although I did not speak the language I have never been more touched by people or felt appreciated for the little things I did for them than I did when I was there. These villages were so thankful for what we did. They brought us fruits, offered for us to come to their homes for a meal, anything they had to offer to show us how thankful they were. Many of these families had very little. But their hearts were huge and so grateful. Not only did we touch their hearts, but as a student (Athletic Training) I learned so much. Leaving was so hard. I wanted to stay and help everyone that I could. This was a trip I would never forget and I cannot wait to volunteer as a clinician and help these amazing people again.

Would you recommend this program?
