Our Team Fundraising Page
This August 1-13, we will be in a place where hardship, poverty, and hunger make life look and feel different for the people living there than my life of plenty, comfort, and basic needs being met here in the US. In this is unique service experience, we will be going to Antigua, Guatemala with a team of UND nursing students, other healthcare students, an alumnus, faculty, and other volunteers. We will be working with an organization called the GOD’S CHILD Project (http://godschild.org/), which is a ND based charity that has been striving to “break the bitter chains of poverty through education, housing, and healthcare” for more than 25 years. Our 12 day trip will focus on serving the poor in a variety of ways, which includes volunteering at a malnutrition center, nursing home, and hospital for the disabled, serving supper at a homeless shelter, going on home visits to interact with and see where the project’s children live, building a home for a family, and distributing food and clothing to the poor. In our service, we will also be learning and growing ourselves through every interaction and all that we see.
We are excited about the opportunity and experiences that lie ahead. We hope you see the value in how we will serve. As you can imagine, a trip like this requires financial support from a number of people. For this mission trip, each participant needs to raise $1100 by June 18. If you can support one or all of us in a financial way, we would be very grateful. Donations of all sizes make a big difference.
Thank you so much for prayerfully considering how you can partner with us on this service trip and help to break the bitter chains of poverty for some of the poorest of the poor.
