What does a typical day look like? What is expected of me when I am there?

As with most short-term trips, be prepared to serve extensively! You can expect long days and a full schedule. Our typical day runs from 8:00 am to 9:00 pm. In order to build relationships and unify our volunteer team, we ask that volunteers participate in all sessions. Please contact us to discuss situations that may affect your participation.
