This past May, our church came together to pack 275,000 meals for children in the Dominican Republic through Kids Around the World (KATW). Now we’re traveling to meet the community receiving those meals. Come see firsthand how that food is making a difference, and Do Good while you’re there. Sign up.
On this five-day trip, you’ll partner with local leaders and KATW staff to serve in practical, relational, and spiritual ways. Project details are still being worked out, but you can expect to do things like:
Meet real needs — deliver food, assist families, and encourage the hurting.
Help in local schools — support teachers, students, or improve facilities.
Bring clean water — install or distribute water filters in the community.
Build relationships — through home visits, prayer, and shared meals.
