Support the Cambodia/Laos Cultural Immersion Mercy Mission
Have a positive impact! Help build the resourcefulness and leadership skills of the next generation, while improving the quality of life for Cambodian families and homeless.
SAC is sending some of its future leaders to Cambodia and Laos to volunteer their time to understand the developing world through the eyes of the poor and displaced.
STUDENTS REFLECT:
Why are we going?
Our Mercy Mission involves cultural interactions with people from the Metta Karuna Reflection Centre run by Sister Denise and completing tasks such as painting, construction, refurbishment, teaching, and agricultural work to help support the work of the centre. It is an opportunity to help a community with projects that will improve their quality of life.
In this process, we will learn new skills, and immerse ourselves in cultural experiences. This will include trying new foods, visiting cultural sites and learning a new way of living in a developing country.
We will also be planning the itinerary, raising funds, coordinating transport and accommodation, establishing work groups and managing team finances.
What this means to us:
“This will be a trip of a lifetime that pushes us to learn beyond the classroom walls.” – Alicia
“We are excited to travel to the Metta Kaarana Reflection Centre run by Sister Denise and help her to support struggling refugees and local people to improve their lives.” – Madison
“Travelling to Cambodia and Laos aligns with the Mercy Vision and Values of SAC. We want to help people have a better life, even if it means building latrines at the back of their local school.” – Grace
