"This feeling of gratitude and oneness with everyone that was there is something that I haven’t felt in a long time...we were all there to experience, learn, and grow. Being on this trip reminded me of the humanity of everyone."

“The opportunity to formally engage in work of this nature has been impactful and, dare I say, life-changing for me. I know that I have been impacted in positive ways, and it has changed the lens I use to see myself, my peers, my colleagues, my city, and the greater world. Adding this perspective has been a welcome change.”
