Go for it! Global health

We visit and learn from a diverse group of health providers- from small rural clinics, traditional healers, non-profit organizations and health centers. Students will gain from learning how health care providers work resourcefully and creatively to meet many health challenges. We help as we can in clinics and as need, offer health education.

Get in there! Literacy and education

Students interested in education will have the opportunity to observe, teach, and interact with children of all ages. We will explore the similarities, differences, challenges, and joys of teaching and learning in rural Nicaraguan schools.

Take part! Community development

Our Nicaragaun partners teach us about effective and sustainable community development. They work with families, schools, farmers, women’s groups and community leaders. We help out building gardens, planting trees, constructing pig pens, etc. Our primary goal is to learn and to consider our place in their important work.
