Volunteer Experience

  • Costa Rica Filter of Hope Spring Break Trip, 03/01/26, A team of students partnering with Cru and Filter of Hope went from house to house partnering with local churches to find the people who were in the highest need of a water cleaning device. Many of the people who received water filters were terminally ill and unable to work and could not afford to purchase clean bottled water.
  • Panama, 07/01/18. The team built a school for the children, helped extend the ministry for the women who previously were forced into prostitution. These women were able to make jewelry and have insurance, for the first time in their lives. Their children had a school to go to, and clean water. My role in this was to babysit and form impactful relationships with children and the local residents.
  • Backpacks and Brown Bags, 2016-2019, Volunteered on a weekly basis on Wednesday nights for approximately four hours to pack food for over two hundred and fifty school-aged children. Organizing food, assembling lines, and making sure that everyone received the same amounts were all part of this task.
