Dominican Republic

“I LOVED being away from my phone and getting a break from the screen. It opened my eyes to real relationships and the community around me, and it made me appreciate everything so much more.”

—Joshua L.

Montana Blackfeet Reservation

“The openness of the community is still mind blowing. The great friendships and networks that VISIONS has established on the Blackfeet reservation were super valuable.”

—Judy C.

Peru

“So many important things I gained from my month in Peru. I made new kinds of friends. I got so close with my peers, community members, and leaders. I am so thankful for this opportunity I had to go to Peru. I am forever grateful.”

—Sophia M.

British Virgin Islands

“VISIONS was probably the best experience of my life so far. It gives you an idea about working for the future and working for other people’s joy and not for yourself.”
