Hi, my name is Lindsey, and I am going into my second year of college for occupational therapy. At my college, I have the opportunity to go on a service trip to Vietnam. The Vietnam program is a 15-day journey of service learning with the purpose of exploring the country's child and family welfare system. We will lend a hand with sustainable projects that help preserve communities and address children's needs living in orphanages.

An emphasis of this trip that interests me the most is the chance to help rehabilitation efforts for children with special needs. Students like me have the opportunity to design developmentally appropriate activities for these children that they otherwise would not have available.

Including all flights, hotels, meals, visa, and cultural excursions, the cost of this trip will be around $5,000. I would appreciate any help or donations that would help me participate in this journey!
