Summer Break Programs

Travel to Ghana this summer with the VRC!
This service-learning program is an opportunity to work alongside local communities, learn from their experiences, and contribute to ongoing initiatives. Together, we’ll support projects that address community-identified needs, focusing on areas like education, infrastructure, and community development.
The trip is designed to foster mutual understanding and partnership. Participants will engage in hands-on activities while gaining insight into the local culture. If you’re interested in learning, building connections, and being part of a collective effort, we invite you to join us.
Trip Dates:
June 9-23, 2025
