Having the chance to experience something that few kids my age do made me realize how much others may have gone through to reach where they are. It taught me never to take anything for granted. As I begin my life, I will carry with me the impact of this trip and aspire to touch others' lives with the same compassion and understanding.

It was amazing to see the transformation of 10 nervous students into world travelers, global thinkers, and life-long friends within 10 days. They return home with more insight and heart for humanity.
