Join us on a transformative journey to Puerto Rico, where high school students and their families can make a meaningful impact while exploring a vibrant culture.

Experience the Vibrant Culture of Ponce

Ponce is a vibrant city known for its rich culture, historic landmarks, and warm, welcoming community. During our stay, we will be based at a local church, giving us a genuine feel of the local lifestyle and traditions. Students and families will have the chance to explore the colorful streets, taste the delicious local cuisine, and engage with the friendly residents, making this trip not just a mission but a cultural immersion.

The city's lively atmosphere and historical sites offer an enriching experience that goes beyond textbooks. From its beautiful architecture to its bustling markets, Ponce provides a perfect backdrop for a meaningful and educational journey.

Transform Lives Through Community Service

One of the core purposes of this trip is to engage in community service projects that have a lasting positive impact. Our projects will range from helping to renovate community spaces to assisting local families with daily needs. These activities are designed to foster a sense of responsibility and empathy among students, while also providing tangible benefits to the community.

Participants will learn valuable skills and gain new perspectives on life, as they work hand-in-hand with locals and fellow volunteers. This experience aims to inspire a lifelong commitment to service and social responsibility.

Important Dates and Costs to Keep in Mind

The total cost for the trip is $795, which includes lodging, meals, and ground transportation. Please note that flights are not included in this price and can be purchased either through the school or individually, with an estimated cost of around $350.

To secure your spot, a 50% payment is due by December 8, 2024, with the final payment due by January 8, 2025. These deadlines are crucial to ensure all arrangements are finalized and the group’s numbers are confirmed.
