one by one helped each villager pick a new pair of shoes! There was one little

the perfect pair. Her face just lit up.” –Rachel Leonard

embrace each situation that I was placed in.” -Sophie Rex

want those feelings again. I also feel now that I can make a difference and no
matter how dirty, smelly and gross you are, people will always love you if you
do all that you can.” -Grayson Murphy
"I was always busy working with the wonderful people of the
village. I fell in love with the people, especially the kids due to the
hands-on service I did every single day.” -Elysha Davis

community that I would not have found otherwise! I will forever be a volunteer
and lifelong humanitarian!! Thank you Youthlinc!”

about how you can affect others and how they can affect you. Service allows
both the giver and the receiver a chance to grow...” -Grayson Murphy
“I was filled by moments that took my breath away. A student
teaching the Peruvian children how to say ‘I love you’ or our hug circle as we
said our goodbyes, being welcomed into the village every morning … all of these
moments are in my heart forever.” -Elham Nazzal
“I loved being reminded of the ‘right’ ways to serve—to help
give a hand up not out, to work hard alongside those you are helping.” -Joanie
